When should I defoliate photos in indoor 2x4x6 on day 47
This is my first grow in a 2x4x6. I got carried away and packed it out. im on day 47 for everything. 3 autos, 6 photos. I defoliated autos right before flowering. The question I have is should I let the photos grow a little more before defoliating and or topping?

To Top or not to Top....
So I plan to put in a screen and land up with a level canopy, hopefully. Is it absolutely necessary to top your plants? (I’m nervous of messing it up like the noob I am) And do my plants look ready to top? And do they look ok otherwise?Thank you

LST after Topping
When would you start doing LST after doing a topping? I have topped about 3 days ago now, and have good growth from the new sites, about 1/2 inch of stock coming from the tops. Worried if I LST a little too early those new tops might not be grown enough yet!

Are these plants ready for topping/LST? 2 have just gotten to 6th node and one to 5th (was planted 4-5 days after first two)
Looking to top all three and potentially manifold at least one of these plants. Only concern is I just transplanted them in tuesday. They look great but I just want to make sure they are out of the woods on transplant shock before i start hacking away at them.

Fuck. First week of 12-12 and I almost accidentally top this plant. Broke the stem enough to cause it to bleed on one side. Think it will hold/heal?
Accidentally broke one side of this stem while attempting LST through a lattice. My idea was, instead of simply topping, to bend the plant downwards into the lattice to keep it down. Problem I'm trying to solve is plants keep growing too close to lights. Thoughts? ✌️

Topping o no hacer nada a esta fotodependiente
I'm debating whether to do Topping or not do anything at all. It's 24 days old. It started in a 3-liter pot and was moved to a 15-liter pot on day 22. It's at the sixth growth node.

Show I cut main stem?
Should I get rid of the main stem and just grow the surrounding bud sites? The main stem is getting too tall compared to the other stems so thinking I have to do something to help them catch up? Or just cut the main stem entirely? Finished 1st week of 12 12 tonight.

Should I top this autoflower early in Week 2 or 3?
Should I top/fim this Autoflower early in Week 2/3 and prepare for main lining Or should I just let her grow naturally?

Topping gone right?
Anybody ever have a topping turn out like this? Just thought it was funny I didn’t even notice. Definitely didn’t get the light it needed to grow but I’m gonna get some big colas from this baby and probably more main ones now too

Too late to top these autos? I'm at the end of 3rd week.
Should I have topped this one a couple days ago? These girls have been very vigorous. The only thing that gave me pause was these miniscule white pistils right here. Can I snip em, you think? Or bad idea? And if yes, should I FIM instead?

Pistils? Steps from now on?
Hey this is my first plant. Went all good till now. Not the growth i had wished for, but im happy. Day 21 now i see pistils clearly. Isnt it a bit early for pistils, because the plant is relatively small. How should i proceed? LST? Topping an option or is it too late?

Top or lst and when
Should i top her and if yes, when? She is a fotoperiod but a very fast one, and she is probably ready to harvest around the beginning of September. She is about 3,5 weeks old now so she doesn't have that much time to grow I think. Same for my other plant, that us an auto.or lst?

Mutant clone advice
So one of the clones from Candy, a (fem) Northern Lights has 3 symmetrical growth points starting at or about the 4th node and continued on the 5th. So when I top do you think the trend will continue. Any insight will be appreciated. Thankx MrYuk.
