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.

Has anyone ever tried "harvesting" the trichomes from the sugar leaves when the plant is still not ready? For instance wiping a rolling paper on some leaves and then rolling a cigarette with it? I did it and got high. Is it placebo effect? Will this affect plant growth?Plant. Other

Can you put your plants into veg after one day of 12/12??I accidentally left the timer on 12/12 in one of my tents I was supposed to flick it onto 18/6, If I revert it back to 18/16 quick after only one day of 12/12 will this do anything or just slow the veg process down?

Should I remove some of the dense foliage as I start LST, or wait? Other suggestions appreciated!The Durban Poison and Jack 47 are very dense, with tight nodes. Iβm beginning LST this week to get more light to more of the branches, but should I prune some of the excess foliage? If so, how do I decide what to remove? Thanks in advance for your help!
