I have 6 different relative humidity sensors in the 4x8 tent all near each other. At any one time, they all have vastly differing readings. The lowest reads 50%, the highest is 78% at one point in time. How do I know which one is most accurate?

Can I defoliate lightly during flower after week 3?
My plant is doing very well however the fan leaves having gotten a bit much. I'm about to go into week 5 of flower and I'm wondering if I can remove a few fan leaves to help lower humidity and increase light penetration to the other bud sites?

Anyone have good experience with cover crops such as Alfafa?. How does the nitrogen fixing work? When is it good time to use cover crops? Any specific cover crops you recommend for pest and helping the health of the plant overall.,.

Trimming in flower?
Thoughts on trimming in flower? I trimmed underneath and lightly defoliated the top about 2 weeks in to flower. I'm mid-way through week 5 now, not sure if I should just leave them or trim some lower larf. Not planning on touching fan leaves until final week before harvest.

To top again? Or not to top again? That is the question. I'm working in a 2x4x5 tent so my height is limited. Not sure if I should flip now, or top the two mains again and flip at the end of this week? First photo grow so this is just one of many. Thanks fellow growers!

I've read a lot when it pertains to defoliation. My plan is to wait a week or two longer before I defoliat them for the first time. Any suggestions on defoliation? I understand trimming leaves that block bud sites bud any other advice would be helpful!

What is your favorite way to finish a plant at this stage? Dark period? Starving? Get wild with some stem splitting? No need for flush cuz super soil 👍

Basically, my question is: Can it be normal for an autoflower to not flower by day 54? #2 has started budding, but #1 is still just growing. Leaves are less rough too so I dont think its even started the change yet?!?!
