They look fine but in the future try to defoliate a couple days apart so you won’t stress the plant as much happy growing looks good 🍃🍃

Enough LST for an autoflower?
I was wondering how much LST and how intense the LST on an auto should be? I heard you shouldn't stress autos too much, that's why I'm extra careful and wanted to ask. (And yes I know it's overwatered, I'm letting it dry out at the moment)

What should I do with my plants that have grown thicc to receive more light? - First Grow
My plants (1 auto, 1 photo) have grown a lot and are now pretty thicc. Should I remove some leaves to allow more light directly on the new growths from the nodes? More agressive LST? Leave them alone? They have grown in a weird pattern because of my LST attempts (see pic).

Lower leaves too pale or yellowing?
I am noticing the lower leaves of my Royal Critical Automatic to be much more pale green than the top of the plant. Is this a nutrient/light/watering/lst stress problem if at all? First Grow. Started balcony, moved to tent D23. SF-1000 light, 100% at ~ 55cm from canopy.

Defoliation for better ventilation?
Should I defoliate/prune to ensure better ventilation? I am going to flip the plant soon. It is quite bushy with big leaves and sometimes it is difficult to water it as there are a lot of leaves down there. And when is it better to put the net? Before of after the flip?

Time to flip?
Is it the right time to install trellis net and flip her to flower? It's day 43, she is 23cm tall (the highest point), looks well-trained already with many branches. Should I defoliate before flipping?

Early flower and plant too small?
Multiple questions: Is this the first sign of flower on the picture of D21 from sprouting? Doesn't the plant look to small for it still? How do I promote new node growth? Is watering roughly about 1.5L per week too little for nutrient influx? Royal Critical Auto - RQS

Will this tape repair a broken stem?
Should I re-wrap this broken stem? Bent with too much pressure and there was a snap, though not completely severed. I applied two or three layers of duct tape, not sure if the constant pull of ties will allow it to heal and repair. When should I take the tape off?

Topping and LST autoflower
I have a 2.5 week old seedling that is only ~3 inches tall, but I just topped/fimmed the 5th node. I plan on starting LST, how long should I wait before tying them down? She is currently in a 3 gallon.

ScrOG tucking: expose lower smaller bud sites by tucking/compacting main cola branches?
For a better yield, should I aggressively (but gently) bend main leading branches and tuck all shading fans to expose young 'undergrowth' branches (circled) and bud sites to light, or, inversely, untuck fans and straighten leading branches to give more light energy to them?
