Mainline/Manifold: Trimming fan leaves after done with topping.
DFWmdstarted grow question a year ago
Finishing up the topping portion of mainlining. P2 to be Nebula-Haze style and P3 to be Nugbuckets style. I'll be trimming growth tips other than from the 8 cola sites on each. Still keep un-shaded fan leaves below those levels? A lot online shows all lower fan leaves trimmed

if the 8 growth shoots are ready to ride solo, you could remove the leaves if you cant tuck them.
by that I mean they are developed and are already working on their 2nd node or so, if theyre too small it makes no sense.
check out my grow; I had the same idea for 8 tops! same guide
mine is probably not as bushy but youll get the idea.
especially if youre not limited on time then it will recover regardless.
just faster if they are ready to grow without need of those big fanleaves.

use your twisty ties to move the leaves out of the way.
i believe in not trimming those big leaves connected to the branch; but the rest wel.
if they are able to catch light its better than nothing!
very importanto

Prune bushy top of small plant?One of my plants is kinda short but bushy on top, so i was wondering if i should maybe remove some leaves so that the lower parts of the plant will get more light ? Plant in question is 4 weeks old now and around 12cm in height.

To prune or not to prune?Hello guys.
A beginner question here.
Should I prune these "inner" branches or should I let them grow? They are getting a lot of light but I don't know if it's worth letting them bloom.
If I have to cut them when would be the best time?
I'll leave this question open until Friday.

Autoflower topping?... and if so, when is best?My friend is recommending that I top at the fifth node with the knowledge I'm growing autos.
However, many grower's here discourage it completely for autos.
What's the best practise? I've never topped so this may need spelling out for me.
Thanks in advance ✂️

Too late to defoliate?Should i try to defoliate these two auto girls a little more, or is it too late into flowering?
If so, which leaves are safe to remove?
They are approximately 45 days from sprout and have been speeding through their fases, so it's been hard to compare to others schedules
