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

LED lighting makes badly colored pictures. Used to take my pots out of the tent, but my new watering system makes that a mess. My shop drop-light makes the leaves a weird light green. What type of lighting do you use for in-tent shots? Best answer to a cheap light but great pics.

Defoliation (no horizontal room in my tent and a lot of vertical room)
This may seem like a dumb question but is cutting these small lower branches off going to promote vertical growth in my plants? I will be doing it later on anyways to eliminate larf but would it be more beneficial now or is it worth to keep to take in light energy for now

I am going to give the Air Pots a try, I'm going to start with a 1 liter pot. Should I go on to a 3 or a 10 liter pot after this?

Some guidance for ScrOG please
@22cm & preflowering for about 4-5 days. Haven't noticed any stretching (~2-3cm) When do I start with the ScrOG and at what height should one set the net ? Also curious about defoliation: Right now, I keep tucking the fan leaves under the smaller ones. BB (left),Tangie (right)

Trimming in flower?
Thoughts on trimming in flower? I trimmed underneath and lightly defoliated the top about 2 weeks in to flower. I'm mid-way through week 5 now, not sure if I should just leave them or trim some lower larf. Not planning on touching fan leaves until final week before harvest.

Topping or LST after 1st topping
Last week I topped this little baby, the plant now is growing ok. I noticed that not only the two top side branches are growing a lot, but that the ones on the node under it too. I would like to make the 4 grow and like that I don't have to top more, is it ok? How can I do it?

Complicate
trim auto for compact grow (space bucket)
I want to focus on a few colas when growing this compact, 5gal bucket is max width. Should I leave the 4 or 5 fittest and trim the lower branches off entirely or just let the taller dominate and avoid stressing this auto (space is the obvious issue here)? 🙏thanks community.

So I am thinking about doing a defoliation on week 3 flowering... what do you guys think? Is worth it? She has a ton of fan leaves that could open up a lot space for smaller sites to increase in size.

Only grown autos before which i know are light feeders and i only started them off with plain water then root booster until a week or so old and was wondering should i do the same with these photoperiods or should they be fed more even at seedling stage?

I’m at 53 degrees N which means we don’t get 12 hours of dark until too late in the fall. Will I need to provide 12 hours of dark to start flowering this photoperiod plant?
