Hi growers. Do you think that my 35 days old automatic plant will grow to height or she will be still a bonsai? I didnt make a trim. Thanks for the answer.

Should I trim some of this out, not much below the canopy besides some fan leaves. Just thinking theres not enough space between the heads. Was thinking of starting flower next week.

First Grow Help And Feedback
Hello Grower, OG Kush Flower Day 24: Lollipopped and defoliated 10 days ago. Can/should I defoliate again? The buds seem like they could get more light. Also, I noticed some sprinkles on the top leaves—could this be from too much P/K? Any tips and general feedback are welcome!

Defoliation needed?
Do I need to get rid of these small leaves and stems beneath the canopy for better yield? [Auto flower : flowering stage week 3] Or... to what extent can an auto be pruned at this stage? Any suggestion would be greatly appreciated!

To trim or not to trim this bushy Hindu Kush bi ch
What could or should I do regarding trimming at this stage? Removing lower leaves or upper? My concern is that while healthy it is very dense, nodes are tight, and I think this might impact yield. 3ft would be my max height (6ft tent), and I will likely flip wk 7/8. Thank you!

Autoflower defoliation question
Did some defoliation at the bottoms of the plants to help lower humidity, did I do enough or do too much? Also should I trim some of the skinny branches and pinch out popcorn buds? I will wait until next week to do that if I do so they can recover from the defoliation

Is it a boy? I am in week 5 of veg under T5 8 bulb. 18/6. Harliqueen is not an auto but first time growing CBD so not sure if they show sex before the flip. I will give it a couple more day.
