The temperatures where I am living are increasing weekly and average around 35C currently. What steps can I take to preserve the terpenes of my harvest during drying? I will be using an air conditioner in my room to keep the temperatures around 20-23C, will this be enough?

I want to harvest when my trichs are 60/40 or 50/50, with that in mind, when do I use Ripen? I know it stimulates a lot of stigma growth, maybe now's the time. I think I'm about 5 weeks from harvest at the moment, but there's no real way to know.

question or two in one. When should I start pruning and when should I top? I have been seeing topping should be at 3rd node? Anyone tried that? And how about trimming the leaves up? Should I snip the first set, the two single true leaves? Wait a while longer?

Remove new side shoots at the top of the canopy?
Autoflower is currently in week 6 (week 2 of flower), should I remove the circled new top growth or leave it because it's at the top and mostly getting light? Plants already have 10+ bigger colas each but don't want to accidentally harm bud growth by wrongfully removing stuff.

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?

Got my Bluelab EC/ppm meter in today! Once I had it calibrated I decided to test my tap water. It came out to 420ppm, I shit you not... God wants me to grow pot! Unfortunately this is also a little high as I decided to test my ppm with my nutes. Note: this water hasn't been left out to evaporate chlorine or anything. Using the Dual Fuel x Terpinator schedule found here: https://mygreenplanet.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/02/Dual-Fuel-Terp-Feed-Chart.pdf I took 1 Litre of tap water, and added the nutes for week 3 -2ml Dual Fuel 1 and 2 (I dont have Vitathrive, totally forgot it at the grow store despite writing a list.) Well my ppms shot to almost double of the recommended amount of 850pmm. I am really starting to see why many people struggle with Ntox, etc if they dont use a ppm meter and account for what is in the actual water! To combat this I will probably lug 5 gals water from the grocery store until I splurge on an RO system. Maybe even a cheap Brita faucet filter might bring it down? Tell me what you think!

Defoliate or not?
Is it too late too remove more leaves and branches of a lower plant canopy? I did some 3 days ago. Growing has stopped, just 2nd week of flowering stage.
