I would do mote of a selection trimming and pruning. You go too much and will change your results for less yield

It's totally up to you lots of growers strip the bottom smaller branches off it will ensure everything is getting to the bigger buds rather than the plant using energy on the lower smaller buds also remove any leaves blocking out light 🙏💚

As you can see above I've got two Blue Dream Clones I'm Monster Cropping. My question is when should I top them? They are currently reveging( I'm not sure if this is a transitional phase, or the mark of true reveg). Should I wait for their first fan leaves to form? Or go for it?

Im planning on my final defoliation to be on Day 21 flower. Should I remove every fan leaf/any leaf not directly attached to the bud or is that too much? How do some of you go about your final defoliation?

So #2 is starting to show amber trichomes but #1 isnt in that stage yet. Should i harvest #2 when ready or can i wait until #1 is also ready and harvest together? Is it bad to harvest late? My plan was to hang them both in the tent to dry.

Should I cut off leaves or not?Hi everybody, I’m new here! I have a question: my “daiquiri lime auto” plant is now more or less at the third week of flowering phase, I thought that maybe some of the leaves down near the groung or the “useless” ones could be cutted off. What do you think? Thank u very much.

Please see April 3rd photo and weekly update comment. Considering snipping the lowest 2 growth tips early in an effort to focus more energy higher up the plant. This is an auto specific question and I will be doing lst regardless. All thoughts welcome👊

What is your go to response when you see yellow tips on leaves 3 weeks into flower? I know the idea is to "dial back" the nutes but what exactly does that mean? Just water fresh water a couple of times in a row? Or drop PPM buy like 100 for a watering session?

Wet or Dry Defoliation When is the best time to top or defoliate when growing in soil? Before watering? After watering? Or does it really matter? Also would timing defoliation with nute feeding either before or after matter?

My seedling has two stems, each with 3 cotyledons. I have so many questions, please answer them all 🙏 1 - Have you seen this or heard of this before? 2 - Should I try to separate them? 3 - Should I kill one? If so - kill short fat and stumpy or tall and skinny?
