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!

Is this the beginning of mold/boytris? :o)
Hi! Long time no asking questions... so, just for the fun of it, as the title goes... is this boytris/mold beginning to grow in this poor little bud? Reference: - https://growdiaries.com/diaries/132154-grow-journal-by-amazongrow

How Long do Autoflowers Take in Different Conditions?[
I wish I found this earlier to add to my question above, but any thoughts to the validity/science of this statement attached? The claim is flowering starts in autos on vegetative maturity/size. Horse pooh, or does hydro(speed) has some impact on when autoflowers start flowering?

Burn?
What is this? I added UV light to my grow tent and this plant reacted in this way. None of the other 3 plants had any issues including the sister plant. Tops of the colas with this issue are dried and crispy, undersides seem pretty healthy.

Brown shriveled pistils
Why are these pistils turning brown? Some bud sights look perfect but others have these shriveled pistils. Tips of the leaves aren't burnt at all so I don't think it's nutrient burn.

Harvest time yet?
Hi guys! I'm on week 15 here with this cute little plant 😅 how close do you think I am to harvesting? I noticed some good amber hues coming in on the flower sites, but still a good bit of white towards the bottom. It's a small and stringy plant, but I love it. TIA!! ^^

Pulling some S1's off of my autos?
Anybody with experience on rodelization w/ autos that could provide some guidance? I germ'd all five seeds at the same time but have two plants maturing much faster than the others. Could it give me enough window to force 'nanas and pollenate? If so, how?

Clear or Cloudy?
I managed to get a Jeweler’s Loupe and I tried to take a picture with the iPhone. Do you think the trichomes are all cloudy enough? I was in doubt before buying the loupe because the pistils are still nearly 30%/40% brown. I also found very few brown trichomes, about 1-2% total
