Maybe but if you are uncertain you can wrap in black tape or put in a can cooler as Silky suggested

I'm running the lights at 80watts each but I'm not sure what is sufficient. Anyone these HLG 135s before? What height and wattage do you recommend?

I've been taking tons macro shots and I've noticed there are some small white dots in the leaves (especially young ones) that look like small trichomes but I don't think they are that. I wonder, what are they? And what's the most accurate and/or scientific name for those dots?

Do you defoliate your autos.
Wanting to get other opinions on defoliation for autos. Do you do it? How much if so? From what I've read, some people do and some don't. I think the reasoning I read not to defoliate is that you want to limit stress on autos due to their determinate grow period. Thanks, cheers!

This is my very first autoflower grow so i'm not entirely sure what to expect.... My question is whether or not autos do a flowering stretch like photoperiods or does growth begin to slow at pre-flower?

Trimming
Should I trim off the sun leaves since my plant is so frickin dense. I’m assuming that the light isn’t making its way down enough. I just don’t want to cut off something that could hurt my growth.

Should I defoliate next week?
Should I defoliate next week? Advise what would be better, leave the leaves until harvest, or defoliate leaves heavily now to expose buds only? Check my diary for photos! https://growdiaries.com/diaries/186142-grow-journal-by-liliarose

Pruning lowest nodes?
Can I prune the very lowest nodes off of my autos at this stage? They aren't going to receive much light so I'm thinking it would be better to remove them so that all the energy goes to the upper sites. Any pearls of wisdom on this front?

Tipping or not? Be or not to be!?
Hi everyone. I was thinking if can i still do the topping on my plant? . She is at the 10/11th node stage and looks tall but not bushy. Do you think will it improve the yields without harming the plant?

When would be the best time to pot them in the 20L pots and leave them permanently outside. In The Netherland there are quite some fluctuations in temperature and weather even in the summer. So i want to be sure they can handle it.

This is my first dutch bucket run and my reservoir pH is rising quite a bit daily. I pH down to 5.8 to 6.0 and within 24hrs it's back up to 6.6 6.7. Rinse and repeat. Is this normal or is something out of whack. I know pH will drift a little in a hydro system but this much?
