I wouldn't defoliate autos at all the stress can slow them down and if you have the room just let them be that way they tend to yield well :)

Less leaves = less energy being made = less growth. It is that simple! If the plant did not need those leaves, it would not have grown them in the first place!

Bud rot?
Can leaves be an indicator of bud rot without seeing actual bud rot? Day 65, day 35 of flower. Looks bad...question really isnāt what I can do from here, I think I need to ride it out and harvest early. But is she a lost cause or likely candidate for bud rot?

BLUE DREAM STRAIN - Lower buds and Tris, is the plant ready? Harvest whole plant or top harvest?
Yet another harvest question. My trichomes look like theyāre ready. Lower bud sites could use some time but being a first time grower/eager Iād rather just chop the whole plant. Is it Harvest time? Is extra time worth it for the yield to let lower buds fatten up &cut tops only?

no idea what the seeds are. but is there anyway to tell if its indica or sativa? also usually once I get to this point there is a much deeper smell and I can scratch and sniff at least but with these there seems to be almost no smell, no more than just a vegging cannabis plant .?

Hi, It's my first grow and I need advice again. I have a small Orion F1 auto, she's flowering for 24 days (47 days old). I have these buds under scrog that don't get enough light and don't seem to grow fast enough. Do I remove them? Will it help or stun my plant at this stage? TY
