I would definitely do a little bit of defoliation but not drastically on a auto I don't grow autos anymore as they are to stroppy and can stunt if getting stressed photos all the way for me they looking good for autos mine always stretch to much or stunted so I'm staying away from them people say that they are easy to grow buy I find photos are more controllable and you have time to let them recover from any stress which you don't get with autos happy growing and I'm happy to help if you message me I will start following you now but the plants are nice for autos good luck from uk

I would do some selective defoliation. Autos are sensitive. I would open up inside some and bud sites if blocked. The more leaves you remove the less energy she can make to produce you flowers. Keeping that in mind when you do.

When to use wick systemI was hoping to wait until the end of this week to use the self watering bases since the plant looks old enough, and I don't want to over do it. Should I set it up after I too dress with recharge again, or will beginning of week 5 work?

DeformationHello friends, how are you?
I have a big question about one of my plants. Right after the appearance of the first two pairs of leaves, I noticed it's not doing very well. It's now 15 days old and seems to be starting to flower.

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto'sI like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!9 months ago

What happens to my autos ? Too much fertilizer ? Nutrient block ?First week I tried the devil and fertilized my autos as little as possible, knowing it was useless... Big mistake.
After that I could see signs of too much fertilizer, i.e. pointed leaves and since then, slow growth with very small leaves. What has happened?

My Girl's Gone Rogue with 10cm of Frosty Goodness!My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
Do I let her keep this frosty stretch, or do I harvest and let this mutant masterpiece become a solo act
