Pinch her?

ThemNutsstarted grow question 5y ago

Some of the fan leaves are blocking new growth. I wouldn't mind doing it, but the leaves im talking about are from the last node, right underneath my topping. Is it OK to pinch the leaf off or do i chill the F out?

Yeah, you can remove those leaves, it's called defoliation when you remove leaves that are blocking new growth.

Should I defoliate these bushy auto's?These autos have grown a lot recently (on day 35 today) and are getting pretty bushy. Will this bushiness cause airflow/mold problems? I have a small oscillating fan blowing above the plants part of the day Should I defoliate anything at this point? Leave it alone?

Defoliating FastBuds Autos Hey Auto Growers. I am wondering what you think about defoliating autos. I’ve had differing results and don’t want to stunt them. Mostly the AH & JH to let light in. I’ve tried tucking but they just pop out in the wind. If yes when is the best time. Thanks, Happy Growing 🌱

Is she too bushy/ leafy I 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

Defoliate or not yet?The breeder (AutoSeeds) says they work better if you don't LST to much and focus on the main cola. Should I select a few of the large leaves and defoliate them to get more light in the middle. Just don't want to pick the wrong ones. Hope I have enough images to help you help me.

Got 2 plants that have grown up under identical conditions except pot size. Both were germinated - everything - on the same schedule. Started indoors under 18 hours of light; then moved outdoors. One is flowering - one is not. Will this plant keep flowering or revert to veg?

What to do with veg?The plant is one and a half weeks into a 12/12 light cycle. The foilage has grown like crazy in the last week and I'd like to trim it back but I don't know if I should. I had planned on stripping most fan leaves on the 20th day of flower.

Bigger leaves shading lower branches??As you can see in my last photos (DAY 28) plants are developing lower side branches. Should I get rid off the larger leaves which shade the lower branches? I already tried to bend down the larger leaves to make room for the lower branches. What do you suggest? Veg for 15 more day
