Yo se las dejaría una o dos semanas más hasta que tenga más hojas y luego si hago una poda de bajos que tapen la luz

Autoflowers generally look after themselves dropping leaves late in the grow. Good luck

Should I try to further defoliate in the middle and lower parts of the plants to let more light to all budding sites? The plants are extremely bushy and it is difficult to reach into the middle to remove leaves.

OMG
My Timer malfuntioned and gave them over 22 hrs of light?I was wondering why they kept growing this fast and big until i controlled the system and noticed they get to much light and stretching this hard. So i turned the hrs down to 16 to stress them into blooming, will this Work?

Too many leaves?
So everything seems fine but I feel like there are way too many leaves that over shadows what's below. Should I do something that could be beneficial? Or just leave it as it is? Maybe some defoliation, little by little, to not stress the plant? It's in week 9 now.

Thick sugar leaves
Is it normal to have thick sugar leaves everywhere? Never seen a bud with so much sugar leaves covering the whole bud.

Early flower stage advise
So the branches are kind of short and my lighting area for bloom iss also 30x30 in a 60x60 tent. Should I try to open the canopy more with LST? Defoliate more in the middle? Or maybe both? Maybe I should leave it like that... Im excited about the flowers and don't want to f*ck up

Dear reader, I have 3 plants: the one with the blue badge is looking good but the other 2 are short in my opinion. They have lots of leaves and branches but they are like 12 cm high. Is this a problem? Solution? (Lights higher maybe?) Thanks!

Got 2 plants that have grown up under identical conditions except pot size. Both were germinated - everything - on the same schedule. Started indoors under 18 hours of light; then moved outdoors. One is flowering - one is not. Will this plant keep flowering or revert to veg?

Hello fellow growers! So, i heard that removing the big leaves from the plant at the beginning of flowering stage is good because it will help for the buds. Is it true? Its my first time having it right and i dont want To screw everything. Thank you ! :) Your canadian buddy, D

Pruning fan leaves
I'd appreciate any thoughts on when it would be OK to prune out just the mammoth fan leaves that shade the node spots lower down. They're like friggin' umbrellas. When, if it all, would it be safe to do so?
