I would. Start removing a few really big leaves. Go slow. Once you are comfortable, remove a bit more. You are looking to open up the foliage a bit and allow new, more complex growth to dominate. Then you can do a fee big defoliations if you think it is working. There is a lit if discussion on the right times and how much. I don’t know. My last grow really responded well to this approach.

Now a good time to defoliate?Been fighting with myself to defoliate or not. This is my first grow, so I’d almost like to try it naturally to have something to show improvement from on later grows, but wow is it getting dense under there.

How much light stress can a plant take? I had a blackout for about an hour this week and now I'm worried that my girl will hermie on me. Should I be worried or does it take a lot more stress to turn a girl into a hermie?

Terpenator advocates! I'd like to start using it. Does it ONLY enhance the flavors? Or does terpenator have the ability to override the natural flavors of the cannabis with it's own? When should I start feeding my autos Terpenator?

Indoor growers, what's your favorite node to top? 😊 Do you prefer topping above the 2nd node for 4 big colas ("uncle ben method"), or the 3rd, 4th, ..., for a bushier plant? . Please share your opinion if you have tried some methods 👍
