I started a flush about 2-3 weeks back, because I thought it was close to harvest. Turns out she's taking longer than I anticipated. Should I restart nutrients, or keep it clean until harvest?

Thick canopy
1st time grower here in week 3 of northern lights auto the canopy is really thick and not very tall. I've seen others strip the leaves but they do that later in flower. Should I be worried or am I fine? What should I do?

Auto defoliation
Should I defoliate my plants more? I removed the bottom pair of nodes on both plants but they are still quite bushy. I'm hesitant to cause the plants unnecessary stress and negatively impact my yield, so would love any advice. Today is day 27 and they're pre-flowering.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto's
I like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!

What is the best indication for me that she is ready to harvest given that i do not have a good magnifying glass to observe the trichromes? So far i was thinking that if 70-80% of pistils turn orange on a bud its a sign that its time to harvest the cola.

Nutrients Uptake Issue
2nd grow, Black Orchid & Purple Punch autos in 13L pots, week 9, short & slow. 18/6 TS1000. LST went wrong, defoliation once a week. Soil surface dry, pots heavy. VPD ok. Feeding on 3-day cycle: Flower nutes + molasses Nutes + PK + CalMag Nutes + silica Water uptake dropped—why?
