If it's sativa dominant, then yes, definitely. If it's indica dominant, then maybe. I would remove a few either way. Even if it's too late for it to help the buds get bigger, it should help with ripening and terpene profile.

At that point in flower it will be fine to defoliate. I like to think mine out close to harvest to help with trimming too

Male or female yet?
Male or female? Roughly 8 weeks from seed. I think this seed came from a previous sour diesel female but not sure. How do you sex for sure? If you have a m and a f plant of different strains, can you make a hybrid?

Harvest timing
I'm more of an up and keep moving, mom of the house, kind of smoker. Harvesting with mostly cloudy with a beginning of some amber speck is where I want to be right? Just want to triple check before I go forward.

Expert seeds
Has anyone had issues with the Expert Seed Company? I placed an order last week and sent them money through Venmo and they say they deliver in 48hrs. I have yet to receive an email acknowledging my order, I called them and they don’t answer the phone. 🤔

Are we Twins? would we make a good couple? who are we lol?
Essentially is the same nutrient correct? From my understanding, a PK booster is usually thrown in the middle of the flower cycle for about 2 - 3 wks. I've also noticed it rarely cut out. Can/would you mix the product lines? what weight differences have you seen with use?

Darkness and Waterless before Harvest
Trying to find a definitive answer as to why, * 4 days no water and in total darkness before harvest. I expect this is to stress the plant to fully bloom, but not sure. thanks in advance.
