Only in late flowering , but you never really cut the nitrogen amount, you must reducing it while your PK ratio is getting higher. When you flush you cut the nitrogen ... and everything else

My question is what improvements to my basic skills would enhance my plants general health and resistance against plagues and diseases. I want to learn how to improve health because of hydroponic aspirations in the future, where it is key to be able to react on minor changes! ;-)

Opinions on Defoliation
Is this too much defoliation or just enough? I have just switched to flower today.

Leaf colour and buds
Are the leaves still too dark and should I be flushing more? Just worried I've ruined the growth with the overfeeding of nutes now 😓. It seems small but I guess there's still few more weeks to go? Also for nest time am I supposed to remove the lower smaller buds? Thanks 🌈

Should I defoliate? If so, when/how?
Should I defoliate my plant? It is in the middle of veg. I feel it is getting quite bushy but I am not sure exactly what to remove or when to do it. I have never defoliated before. I plan on vegging for at least another three weeks

Anyone know where I can find some blue diamond seeds? Trying to create blue zkittlez. Got sum in a dispensary in vegas and the smell and taste was amazing. Tangerine with a hint of blueberry. Completley throws ur balance off when the high hits. Feels like nothing I've ever tried.

Defoliation in mid-late flowering
Can I still be defoliating in week 5-6 of flowering? The buds seem quite leafy and a lot of the lower sites aren't getting light, I feel like if I removed some of the larger fan leaves on top it would let the full cola grow thick bud sites rather than just the tops?

Anyone had a pepper-y aroma in a pheno of something normally very tasty? The other plants are really quite nice, very Kush-y - had a few popcorn buds in the vape - but one has this really stinging black pepper aroma to it. Will this turn into something more pleasant with curing?

Do you consider the moment you plant that seed as starting of week one or do you wait till the seedling breaks thru and start week one there?

Should I do a bit of defoliation and if so, when?
Should I defoliate these a bit? And when specifically? Especially the really bushy Stilton x 3BOG. I am haven't adjusted LST since first signs of flower but the tent is a bit crowded and I thought that defoliation might help with air flow and even distribution of light?
