Is she too bushy/ leafyI was wondering what your thoughts are on defoliation. She is very bushy and hitting the edges of my tent now.
1. How much to take off
2. Pics of what she should look like after.
Both of the above would be very helpful to me. This is my first auto grow so being cautious

Defoliate? Auto Week2 flower high humidityI’m struggling to keep relative humidity below 65%-70%.
Should I defoliate some lower fan leaves to help with this? Will doing so hurt overall yield? I’m at beginning of week 2 of flower. Any advice on this would be greatly appreciated.

Defoliate?Will I defoliate the 1st node site as shown in the picture below, when I top her? There doesn't seem to be much growth there the last week and I'm worried that there is wasted nutrients going to this site? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Defoliation - 5th week floweringHeey gardeners!! I'm into 5th week of flowering with three healthy beauties. After the stretch they got bushier than I first expected, and now I'm worried there's too much shade covering the buds. Should I defoliate them? How much and how should I approach? Thanks and stay high5y ago

Any tips would be appreciated she’s untopped, low budget grow but seems to be holding its own, I spend a lot of time tucking leaves and re arranging branches to get more light to the lower nodes. Didn’t know what to expect as this is my first grow. Very fast strain to flower!Week 5

Is that a male pre-flower on that 5th picture? You can see 2 nodes there, lower node and upper node. Upper node is showing female pre-flowers, but what is that wee thing on the right half of the lower node? It's the stalk-y thing that confuses me.Week 10
