LST or leave them be?
Should I Low stress train these girls? I have never grown autos and I am very afraid to stun them. They are ripping fast through water, temperatures are high so they are producing a lot of sugars. I defoliated the fan leaves of #3 in the hope it will grow a bit faster.

LST Defo = This?
It's my first time doing LST and defoliation. And even after many years growing outdoors and reading so much, still would like to hear second opinions to make sure I'm doing it 'right'. She's fed right after training and defoliation to help recover. Opinions? Thanks

Defoliation/LST for Northern Lights Auto
Hello! I am struggling a bit with deformation on my NL auto. Please see pics from week 7. This is after defoliation and it looks like fan leaves will overshadow cola sites again in a few days. Should I defoliate more or leave it? Currently managing with LST but leaves are getting bunched.

Three a Light Book
Has anyone read or tried the technique developed in the book Three a Light? What did you think of it, and did it work for you when you applied it, especially the dismantling? I would also like to know if anyone has any recommendations for this grow I'm currently doing! Good smokes! Hug!

Remove or tie down fan leaves?
Hi guys, what's the better option, removing big ass fan leaves to give bud nodes more exposure to light or tie fan leaves down? I tied a few down but don't know if that's a good idea. Help is greatly appreciated ;)

Defoliation every 3 days during flowering
I heard about defoliation every 3 days during the first 3 weeks of flowering. My sweet critical CBD is almost ending her first week, I already defoliate once, but I think I have to work on it more to let branches grow. What do you think about it? Thank you all!
