Foliage looks nice and clean.. Totally up to you if you wanna cut leaves or not. The impulse to Affect and change the grow is pretty powerful in us so of course we wanna change things to make it improve.... Allow your plant to grow.

Cheezy
My plant started to yellow due to alkaline soil, next time I watered it was done at 6.5ph. Is there anything else I can do to adjust the pH of the medium? Also why is it growing toward the fan and but it's leaves bending backwards?

OMG
My Timer malfuntioned and gave them over 22 hrs of light?I was wondering why they kept growing this fast and big until i controlled the system and noticed they get to much light and stretching this hard. So i turned the hrs down to 16 to stress them into blooming, will this Work?

What do you guys think about the leaves curling sideways like a pin wheel? I thought they would straighten out as the grew, but they're not. Not sure if the next set of leaves are going to do the same thing or not, they're too small. Only strain out of 4 doing it.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto's
I 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!

Do I need to trim more?
Do I need to trim more? This is my first successful attempt, 2nd grow ever. First was a disaster (this one too, almost.) I am petrified that I trimmed too much. But - when I see others plants, I'm questioning if I actually need to do more. Thank you in advance!
