Remove fans leaves in flower
GrowCNanswered grow question 4y ago
Yellow leaves near the bottom should be OK to remove. If yellow the plant has already scavenged the leaf for the nutrients it needs and the leaf probably isn't providing a useful contribution to the plant.

Leaf it alone?So I feel like these colas are more sugar leaves than buds. Should I have defoliated them more? It’s week 17 is it too late to be thinking about defoliation? I just want to get the best out of these last couple weeks. Trichomes appear glassy/clear. Would u agree?

My 3x3 is overflowing with fan leaves. Humidity has gone up on its own since the switch, from ~20-30 to 50-70%. Idk why. Reading about flowering. Any pointers? Start adding flow nutes?Room up,maxed horizontal

Reflecting on 1st grow: when should I have started pinching the side growth? There are lots of small buds on thin branches that are not going to develop as much. I thought that leaves help plants grow, so probably I kept too many of them. What the basic wisdom on pruning?Leaves. Too many

Should I defoliate these bushy auto's?These autos have grown a lot recently (on day 35 today) and are getting pretty bushy. Will this bushiness cause airflow/mold problems? I have a small oscillating fan blowing above the plants part of the day
Should I defoliate anything at this point? Leave it alone?

Topping very bushy plants with low node distanceThis plant is very bushy already in this stage, is this normal?
I wanted to top them and ask about the timing, if its right or not, but it's getting hard to count the nodes and take photos , because there is so much in the way.
Happy growing!

Nodes and Leaves that don't receive light, cut off ?So my plant has grown pretty big in last few weeks and theres just alot of leaves ans nodes that i think are useless to the plant because they barely get any light, and bending them towards the light doesnt work because they grow too slow. CAN and/or SHOULD i cut them off ?
