When would you suggest, I introduce Canna PK 13/14? I have started to notice white pistols, that I assume is a sign that it's in pre-flower (refer to videos above). What is the optimal PH, PPM, Humidity and Temp at this stage? From the videos, do you see any deficiency?

What would be the most efficient light for a single plant indoor grow? My hope is to have one plant sustained through winter months and outdoor grow each summer. I've been to a number of sites and advice varies, so I thought I'd ask here as well. Thanks in advance.

Currently I am watering in the evening. Is it better to water in the morning? I get the sun hitting the plants at 8am so I’m always concerned if I water in the morning the sun will cause some damage.

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.

Won't cut yet or should I?
Am I doing this right? The top arrow is the way I'm bending her, or do I bend her back, bottom arrow? I already stressed her out enough. I defoliated to get rid of shade, bent more. Tied down the twigs. Comments needed lol 👊

Based on the dreadful pictures I have, does anyone agree she is ready to be cut? Will have to trust me when I say there seems to be the majority of trichomes either cloudy or amber. I know the leaves are bad looking, I think she got too hot for a few days when I went away :(

Bigger stardawg hermed so I took the male bananas and put them in a bag because I know they contain pollen. What would be the best actions to take to just play around. If I backcross the pollen to the same strain will I create S1 seeds?

If plants heal while the lights are out, is it better to prune/leaf clear right before lights out? Right as lights come on? Or mid day?

Trimming/Defoliation late vegetation, just before flip to 12/12?
I'm unsure about trimming/defoliation at this point: What's the goal for just before switching to 12/12? I've read to veg until your height is 1/2 to 1/3 the final height supported by the setup. I seem to have plenty of room still. How much do I trim under the canopy?

Defoliation after LST (week 5)
After starting LST on all 5 of my plants I’ve noticed that some fan leaves are still blocking light from new growth sites. The inverse is now also true as some lower fan leaves are now not getting any light. Should I chop the top leaves, lower leaves, both? when should I do so?
