Looks like shes off to a pretty good start, i would prune as little as possible, leaves store nutrients.

Should I defoliate the lower nodes of the branches?
Wondering if I should defoliate the lower nodes of all the branches (as shown in the picture, white arrows pointing to what I am considering cutting) to maximize growth of each top. Thoughts?

First Time Grower
I’m first time grower and would like some help on choosing my first seeds. I’m doing an indoor grow, LED lights, Soil Medium, prefer high yielding and high thc, feminised as well. I’m planning on doing LST and using a SCROG to allow a higher yield. Thank you :)

Should I Train?
This is my first time growing an auto flowering strain. I’ve heard mixed opinions about training them. My question is are there any truly beneficial training techniques for auto flowering strains?

Switching to flowering nutrients (autoflower)
Just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to when I should start switching these critical purple autoflowers to flowering nutes? As I understand it should be a few weeks after preflowers start? Hard to tell when vertical growth slows when doing LST. This is my first grow ever!

Fuck. First week of 12-12 and I almost accidentally top this plant. Broke the stem enough to cause it to bleed on one side. Think it will hold/heal?
Accidentally broke one side of this stem while attempting LST through a lattice. My idea was, instead of simply topping, to bend the plant downwards into the lattice to keep it down. Problem I'm trying to solve is plants keep growing too close to lights. Thoughts? ✌️

Check it out, I'm doing LST, I need to remove the big leaves so they don't get in the way of the new buds, right? Any other recommendations? The girls are 17 days old.

Remove lower branches on this grow?
Should I just remove the lower branches or keep them? They are getting pretty heavily shaded but I rotate the grow bag daily to expose the under canopy growth. This is the only plant I have ever not been able to LST the main Cola, I opted to top it and LST'ed the lower branches.

LST with small space
Should I do LST when my horizontal space is limited? I have 3 Autos in a 60x60x180cm tent and I‘m a bit concerned that this will a bit too small if they grow out. So would LST contribute more to the horizontal space problem?

LST after Topping
When would you start doing LST after doing a topping? I have topped about 3 days ago now, and have good growth from the new sites, about 1/2 inch of stock coming from the tops. Worried if I LST a little too early those new tops might not be grown enough yet!

Leaf Spots, weak color, and leaf ripple
Please help me identify possible causes of this: small spots on leaves, minor color fade (not burn) along edges, and strange 'ripple' effect. A user commented that he thought my plants looked deficient but hasn't elaborated further yet. What might this be? Multiple issues?

Toping vs tucking the top down
This is my first time not toping my plant and am focusing on LST in by just tucking the top under my screen. Has anyone else done this and what were your results.
