Hi there. What do you think about doing defoliation? Should I just leave it as it is and spread them out? Or maybe do nothing and let them fight for light? What could cause the so-called "claws"?

Hi there. I have a question. Is the plant developing properly? It's 30 days old. Is it worth removing some fan leaves and those blocking the lower growth? The two middle ones have a small gap between the nodes.

Плохой стартIt's interesting to find out. The way I messed with the little one and extended the veg stage will affect the quality and quantity of the final product. It seems like I ended up with a photoperiod specimen contrary to my expectations. The parents were two autos and a photoperiod AK-47 dad.4y ago

Flower trimmingI've got several lower branches that aren't stretching high enough to get any good light, at what point during flower is it ok to get out the scissors? I think I might need to do a lil leaf trimming in the lower canopy as well. Could/should this be done at the same time? Thanks

SCROG in 2.5 weeks Flower - Thin out the canopy or not?Its my first SCROG grow. I am 19 days into flower and there is still a tiny bit of stretch still.
Should I thin out the canopy or leave it alone and let it finish as-is? I don't want to stunt their bud development.
What do you think, are they too crowded?

Should I remove these leaves? Only the ones with the worst signs of the Deficiency?Basically I’m going throw a calcium deficiency in week 7 of flower, feel like I’ve already fixed the issue by flushing with pH balanced water and reading the right nutes to the medium. Overall should I trim these fan leaves with deficiencies? And does my plant look good?

Can I defoliate?Hey guys, I was thinking about going on a mega defoliation mission tomorrow and chopping almost all the fan leaves off my plant to free up some space for the buds. Probably about 2 weeks away from harvest so is this a good idea and would it help the plant at all?Other. General questions

Defoliation/pruning at start of week 4?Is it too late to remove the lower fan leaves/side shoots when I’m going into week 4? She’s really dense and bushy and was hoping to thin her out. I should have been more aggressive at the beginning, but I wanted to see if I can still remove much material this late in the game.

Defoliación en la 6ta semana de floración??I noticed that the plants had a lot of foliage and no light was reaching the lower part of the branches, and some small buds were turning yellow. I decided to take the risk and do a major defoliation at this stage. Do you think it could cause any problems??5y ago
