I would defoliate an autoflower after the stretch phase as to not stunt it during that time. Mr. Canuck does do it but he is strategic about it for sure

Wow! That is an impressive plant you have there! You can certainly defoliate an Auto, but just not as vigorously as a photoperiod plant! π It is just because Auto plants have a finite lifespan, and too heavy of a defoliation in flowering could cause issues i.e stunting, mutated buds, herms or even a re-veg like behavior. All of my DWC diaries I very lightly defoliate throughout the entire grow, every single week to prevent wet spots. Looking at your plants I would be casually defoliating through the thick vegetation every few days, only removing a handful of leaves (8-10) at a time only in the really thick places. Your lollipopping skills look to be perfect, great job there, nothing worse than runt limbs sucking out energy from big colas. I am going to follow this grow, as the end result looks like it will be absolutely breathtaking! π πͺ

How far along does she look to you all growersShe's looking like she's way past 4 weeks flowering. She's a reveg clone and I'm really not sure what week she's in. I'm so embarrassed how could I lose track of the weeks. Oh that's right I smoke what I grow is my excuse. I guess I grow some potent medicine.

My harvested weed smells amazing, but tastes horrible. I'd say a bad chemical-like after taste. I thought it was due to poor flushing, but I flushed the 2nd plant for over 2 weeks and the 1st plant for 1 week. Not sure what caused this... Overfertilization? Something else?Week 15

I made a lot of mistakes in my first harvest. The seeds I bought as autoflowering are photo. I took it to 12 hours at week 11. also although my plants are 4 weeks the flowers are very slow and very small. I have 15 trees. The reason must be the weather, which is 7-10 degrees. Nβ¦

How do the other 2 look ? And when to harvest?First grow ever ! How do the other 2 out of 3 plants look ? When should I harvest ? They are Week 6 of flowering 12/12. There is little to no smell as well ! if I pinch a nug thereβs a bit of smell on my fingers. Bought a jewellers lens and hard to see/use to see the trichomes

Doubt on flowering or male.I had many issues and not sure what's happening with one of the plant that doesn't look to flower like her sisters.
Is it late flowering and will develop (or not) and I have to be patient? is it a male and should cut asap?
I hope the pictures will be enough close to help.
