Automatics Entlauben?Is it worth defoliating automatics? If so, how much do you take off and which leaves? They've already become big bushes and are currently in stretch (week 5).

Defoliation in flowering stage Now that she's in the flowering stage is it still safe to trim and tidy the big fan leaves to help light penetration? If so, how much can I take off? What leaves should stay or go? Is it safe to keep training her new branches? Thanks again, all help is appreciated.

When is a cloned plant from cuttings considered a plant, the day of cutting/trimming, or the first sighting of roots in plugs, or in my case, from the transplant date, approximately 10-13 days (good roots) to get to the first transplant stage to 4" pots with soil?

I am still a few weeks from harvest but wondering what experience anyone has with 48 hrs of darkness before harvesting. My last grow, I ended it with 24 hrs of darkness but want opinions on whether the extra 24 hrs is worth it.

Defoliating question- early flower I'm wondering when I should defoliate again. There's a ton of different methods out there and I'm kind of lost. I feel like I should cull the fan leaves to let the buds breath and get more light.
