7 to 10 days. But I know people that waited longer with success. 2 weeks would be max I would wait.

Prune everything below the top-most node?
So what do you guys reckon: should I prune everything below the top-most nodes one last time at the end of first week of flower to control the colas better? Rows of green on youtube does exactly that in his mainline series.

Any thoughts on these trichomes? Plant is only about 6 weeks through flowering, but the trichomes looks super milky and somewhat amber, and its about 80% red hairs. Strain is supposed to be an 8-9 week flowering period. I prefer higher proportion milky, but this seems early....

Supposed to be an autoflower strain. This is week 8 and I don't know if I see any signs of flowering or not. I just switched to flower nutes anyway for one watering to see if I can jump start it. I have a photo seedling in the room so don't want to switch to 12/12 yet.

How's she looking ? Yesterday I noticed that her leaves were hanging so I first thought about over- or underwatering but then i noticed that some leaves are twisting, like the top is facing the soil so I hang the LED a bit higher. Just wanted to know if she's still stressed.

Asking opinion about my little defoliation
I did some defoliation on the biggest leaves tht were impossible to tuck under others. I think I did okay but i'm just asking you guys if I made some mistakes. In any way I can't go back. What's your opinion/recommendation?

Could anyone answer me If I should cut underdeveloped buds that are not receiving much light in order to switch energy to the more developed ones? I've heard this should be avoided but I'm just wondering. Thanks!

How much/little should I prune?
I’ve read a lot of conflicting opinions these last few days regarding defoliation/plucking/pruning. Today is day 21 of 12/12 and my only goal is to prevent white powdery mildew. How many leaves would you take off? RH overnight spikes into the high 70’s if the dehumidifier is off

Do you switch to flower nutes as SOON as you see white pistils appear or should you give it another week or so?
