Yes, the more amber trichomes will give you couch lock kinda high, and yes if you get too many amber trichomes you will have decreased THC level.

Defoliate?
Just repotted my baby after learning she may have too much nitrogen. Should I trim all the damaged leaves or should I wait until the plant gets stronger? Also, when will the stem become thicker? Is there something I can do?

Remove lower branches on this grow?
Should I just remove the lower branches or keep them? They are getting pretty heavily shaded but I rotate the grow bag daily to expose the under canopy growth. This is the only plant I have ever not been able to LST the main Cola, I opted to top it and LST'ed the lower branches.

LST or leave them be?
Should I Low stress train these girls? I have never grown autos and I am very afraid to stun them. They are ripping fast through water, temperatures are high so they are producing a lot of sugars. I defoliated the fan leaves of #3 in the hope it will grow a bit faster.

Are the girls ready for flower??
Hi all! I’m wondering when will be good to switch to flower? I’m at start of week 5 & I topped them 1 week ago. Did a small amount of defoliation today to get rid of some yellow leaves that were laying on the soil. Do they look almost ready? Or wait due to topping & defoliation?

LST method, topping and switching to flower!
Please look at my four girls and advise when I should top them? LST going good so far but think I need to wait a little longer before topping? Anyone have a preferred method of doing things? I’m hoping to LST for another week or so and then switch to flower, am I rushing things🙏

Should I do defoliation ? Hulk Berry Auto - 5th Week
Hi guys ! My plant is growing so far so good but I feel like she could gain a little bit more height and I could end with a better result with bigger yield if I cut some of the small leaves in the bottom of the plant Any advice ? Where should I cut ?

Defoliation after LST (week 5)
After starting LST on all 5 of my plants I’ve noticed that some fan leaves are still blocking light from new growth sites. The inverse is now also true as some lower fan leaves are now not getting any light. Should I chop the top leaves, lower leaves, both? when should I do so?

Cutting or not cutting
Hi everyone, I’m not used to defoliation and I wanted to know if I should remove the yellowing leaves from my plant. I read lots of things with different kind of view so I’m at loss. The leaves are nutrient so why remove them? Thank you

Popcorn/ mini branches keep/remove?
Buds are tiny not fattening at week 6. I also have lots of popcorn nugs. Being first growth not sure to remove them or keep them at this late in flowering (week 6), might stress the girls out or might even help fattening buds? Should i clean up the leaves as well?

Show I cut main stem?
Should I get rid of the main stem and just grow the surrounding bud sites? The main stem is getting too tall compared to the other stems so thinking I have to do something to help them catch up? Or just cut the main stem entirely? Finished 1st week of 12 12 tonight.

Hey Guys! I’m doing two autos - Runtz Auto by Zamnesia. Currently entering the 3 week. They have precisely 15 days from seed. What do you think of topping? Or half topping? Regardless, i found some different answers, positive and negative about this method of training.

Im still trying to figure out the perfect amount of defoliation. Am I right on the mark, to much, or to little? I know its personal preference based but I want your opinion. Thanks Growmies. First pic before second after defoliation

My plan was not to defoliate the autos, as I've read much debate on this. I'm curious if it's in my best interest to take a couple of these bottom guys off that are touching the pot for a bit better air flow. Thoughts?

Is it time to defoliate or note? Asking as I have read to do a little Defol as they start to flower, not sure what is the right moment and to be honest what the right fan leaves to remove?
