Defoliate AUTOS?
JoeShmo420started grow question a year ago
Can I trim off stressed leaves on auto flower plants or should I leave the plant be so that the it's less stressed in general.

Considering the early stage of development of your plant I would not defoliate as of now, as it looks more like nutrient issues to me tbh. Those could be caused by PH through nutrient lockout. Maybe. A fully vegged plant could get away with it more easily, matter of fact, I take all leaves which are blocking any of the smaller budsites, even on autos. When the plant has a "stable base" its not a problem at all, IMO.
In your place, Id tray to hold VPD relatively low, so you put least stress on your plant and try to (slowly) lower PH to around 6-6.2 range. You will see if it helps.
Keep it up!

Do not defoliate any plant of that size............just leave them be.
Just remember.........
less leaves = less energy production = less growth.

you can cut off dead leaf material, that's possibly a net positive. Otherwise, let the plant suck down any leaf it sheds.. when you can gently pull it off, that's a good time to remove a leaf.

Maybe PH Lockout?Hello everyone, can you maybe help me? My Black Cherry Punch has some kind of problem. I suspect it’s a nutrient lockout caused by the pH value. I flushed it two days ago, and the drain had a PPM of 1000 and a pH of 7. The plants are at the beginning of the 2nd week of flowering.
