Chronic_Benjistarted grow question 4 years ago
Ive got 2-3 weeks to go, as you can see by the Week 11 lower canopy pics I missed some bud sights on the lower levels when defoliating. They are still mostly pistils and I know they wont get a ton of light or develop alot. Is it worth the stress to remove them now or let em go?

Hello Chronic_Benji, your girls looking good and healthy.
You can remove the popcorn buds if you want to to see if it still going to make a change for your upper bud development.
If your not sure or want to test it, remove the popcorn just from 1 or 2 plants as comperison to the other ones.
My tip for next growth is to make sure after defoliating in week 3 of flower you check after a few days if you didnt miss a spot.
Thats to my knowledge the best time to do it and remove small buds who have no chance at all, so it will destribute the energy to the rest of the bud formation.
I hope this was an helpfull answer, Keep on growing my friend. Peace šš

incredible coconut oil for my edibles

Hey man, I see what you're talking about. It's not going to make a lot of difference if you remove them now but it could do so is not going to hurt it. I would say if you'd picked them off earlier it could have made a small difference to your top buds.

Excessive nodes and autoflowersMy plants have SO SO many nodes. In my opinion they have way way too many branches. Is there anything at all I could do as far as cutting/pinching, some of them off? Theyāre autoflowers and Iāve only really found people saying donāt do it.

Tops spacingMy plant is really tight for space between tops. I'm trying not to disturb her anymore. I really don't want to cut anymore off but the foliage is getting insane. My question is do my tops have enough space or do I need to find a way to spread out more, and should I defoliate?

Defoliation in flowerI did a defoliation before flip to flower, but im at the end of week 2 and did an aggressive lollipop over the past 3 days because I wasnt seeing good growth below the very top of the plants, and im wondering if this is too much stress going into week 3 flower
