Not sure if topping should be done now or next wee...
CRiSPrGrowanswered grow question 5 years ago
I see the sixth node coming on, you can top at the 5th node now. Thing is you're in flower right now, and you should really be in veg for this, so i would just add another week of veg when you top. Hope this helps ! 🚀

Hey there so I would probably just go ahead and do it right away if you're planning to. If they just got switched to 12/12 they'll be having big growth very soon and then it may be too late. I thought the same thing as @budrick that its better to try doing it during the veg time so it has more success at healing and splitting. ✌️

So many leaves! Should I defoliate even more?I defoliated just before and even during the first week of flowering, but she keeps growing so many leaves even during the second week of flowering.
Should I defoliate right now or wait a couple of weeks? I worry I could halt the flowering or cause even more useless stress...

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto'sI like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!2 months ago

Remove or not new branchesHi Growers! I'm undecided whether to remove the new lower shots, you can understand which ones from the photos (see also diary).
Is it better to remove them by promoting higher grow and keep that part clean as a structure?
My instinct says yes, I am looking for some confirmation

Defoliation/grownet?Day 37
I've been trying to defoliate but not sure exactly how much to take off.
I've just been taking big fans that get no light underneath or the ones covering bud sites.
I have a grownet is it too late to try and use it?
The two in one pot are taking up a lot of room now

Is she too bushy/ leafyI was wondering what your thoughts are on defoliation. She is very bushy and hitting the edges of my tent now.
1. How much to take off
2. Pics of what she should look like after.
Both of the above would be very helpful to me. This is my first auto grow so being cautious
