If possible you should try tucking them so the bud sites receive the best light and airflow. I've heard of people taking a few fan leafs off auto during flower but I don't believe it's common practice

Brown dots on leaves
Getting some brown spots on leaves, thought maybe it was septoria so have been treating with neem oil. It’s still slightly spreading though, not on all leaves. Also a couple brownish/bronze patches. Any idea on what it could be?

Branches growing on leaves?
Has anyone seen this before, branches growing out of leaves? I have limited experience growing and this was a first. I had to trim this one because it was shading some bud sites, but I didn’t notice until after I cut it. Weird or no? Thanks!

So, something has happened, thinking it's either a nute lock or cal-mag deficiency so thinking a flush and then no nute feed with cal-mag. Should I be worried? Is this at all save-able? I fed them with bites about 4days ago. Really don't know what to do

Week 1 Day 5 picture-I'm concerned about the leaves praying to the sun gods and slight yellowing. What's happening here? Is it due to low humidity and possibly light burn. Humidifier has been added to the tent and light distance increase to 20 inches as a precaution 😉

Touching buds while drying
Does touching the buds at all while they’re drying reduce potency? I’ve been checking them daily and touch the odd one from time to time. Should I just leave them alone and focus on snapping a stem to determine if they’re dry enough?

Is this normal or do I run into issues?
After watering today I ran into these spots on 2 leaves. However all the other leaves look dark green and healthy (compare picture 3) Am I overcautious or are there problems ahead? LightMix / BioBizz schedule w/ occasional plain ph-adjusted tapwater / 200W LED (70%)

DEFOLIATION: when should I do it? I start by removing some yellow leafs and I'm at 2 week from harvest. Should I remove the other biggest leaf, even if they didn't shadow the flower and are healthy and green? Also, what means if the stem is reddish?
