I'm confused about what seems to be growing at the bud sites of my auto feminized plant. The white hairs suggest female plant to me, but the bulky lobes almost look like sacs of some sort. Can anyone maybe help identify what my problem is?

Trimming Fan Leaves in Flower
Debating trimming the leaves but I don't want to stress the plant if I don't need to. I'd like more light penetration to hit the subcolas coming off the mains. the fan leaves themselves are still healthy

To prune or not to prune?
Hello guys. A beginner question here. Should I prune these "inner" branches or should I let them grow? They are getting a lot of light but I don't know if it's worth letting them bloom. If I have to cut them when would be the best time? I'll leave this question open until Friday.

Pruning lowest nodes?
Can I prune the very lowest nodes off of my autos at this stage? They aren't going to receive much light so I'm thinking it would be better to remove them so that all the energy goes to the upper sites. Any pearls of wisdom on this front?

She just started week 7 and i plan on taking her to 10 depending on Trichomes. From here on out just water and molasses once in awhile. My question is do you flush or leech? If so do you add anything? If not what is your reason? Would love to hear others opinions on it!

I keep checking the trichomes and the body is clear and many heads are amber. I thought there supposed to go from clear to cloudy then amber, since I have amber heads is the thc degrading or is it improving because the body is still clear? Should I harvest or wait?

Defoliation of bushy plant during week 1 flowering
I flipped my girls to flower 5 days ago and been lightly defoliating the big one (top right) over the last 4 days (plucking lower fan leaves and those blocking bud sites from the light, about 10 leaves a session) Was it a bad move considering I already flipped to flower?

I'm considering topping her today, and was wondering if it's a good time for it. Is there any advantage/disadvantage to wait a bit longer? She seems to be quite healthy and growing noticeably every day. I'm in no rush at all, just hoping for best results as a first grow. Thanks!

Finding seeds on my plant seems like it may have converted to hermaphrodite from a light issue with a power outage. Should I harvest now or wait to see if it continues to bud?

Since my light has the 3 options for Veg, Bloom or Full spectrum which would be best? Also if my room temp never climbs above 30 do I need to have fans in my grow space if I leave the door open for ten minutes every morning in the room with a small fan to let the air exchange?
