In my opinion there is nothing particularily alarming here. The plants look a bit droopy, but it could be due to recent watering, time of day etc.
As for the thin leaves, the leaf structure of cannabis plant tends to change as flowers start to form. You will begin to see those small sugary leaves instead of big fan leaves.
So it's all good in the hood as long as those flowers and leaves go :)

That looks like heat and/or light stress. The canoeing crispy looking leaves are a clear sign. What light are you running and how close is it? What are your ambient air temps? Are you running a water chiller? What's your water temperature? The drooping leaves is a sign of overwatering. In hydro that usually means you have root rot or something.

Looks like she might be getting more nitrogen than she needs.

It's the water , I guess.
Too much or too little. How's humidity and heat?
Does she react to watering immediately? If so, it's underwatered.

Cause you’re in flowering. The leaves get smaller and tighter in growth. Nothing to worry about.

Too many leaves?So everything seems fine but I feel like there are way too many leaves that over shadows what's below. Should I do something that could be beneficial? Or just leave it as it is? Maybe some defoliation, little by little, to not stress the plant? It's in week 9 now.Leaves. Too many

Popcorn/ mini branches keep/remove?Buds are tiny not fattening at week 6. I also have lots of popcorn nugs. Being first growth not sure to remove them or keep them at this late in flowering (week 6), might stress the girls out or might even help fattening buds?

Looking for opinions on a try of LST and a thought about taking off big fan leaves from the topHad a shot at LST training one of my girlfriend plants, just wondering opinion from people if it has been done correctly. Also had a thought to take off two big fan leaves from the top to get more light onto nodes, not quite sure if that would be good ideaLeaves. Too many

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 cautious4 years ago

Defoliating FastBuds AutosHey Auto Growers. I am wondering what you think about defoliating autos. I’ve had differing results and don’t want to stunt them. Mostly the AH & JH to let light in. I’ve tried tucking but they just pop out in the wind. If yes when is the best time.
Thanks,
Happy Growing 🌱5 years ago
