I would personally just tuck any leaves out the way. Unless you have humidity reasons. If it didn’t like it last time don’t do it again.

I'd really like some recommendations on pruning or thinning out these two cloned Tangerine Dream Autos. I read a lot that states I should leave them alone, but these two look very chaotic!

What do you guys think about the praying leaves? The internet seems to disagree. Most people seem to think it's a good thing. Everything is in high gear and the leaves are using all of the energy to absorb light. Some camps say it's too much light and it's stressing out.

Sativa Defoliation in Flower?
How, when, or should I defoliate this Alice Nicole sativa in flower? She's a mess, and could use better light penetration and airflow. What leaves to remove? Most seem to be attached to a bud site. This is my first sativa and ScrOG grow, so any help would be appreciated. Thanks🙏

My dark devil auto has just started to flower, not even a full week in yet. I have it planted in a 13” terra cotta pot (~2-2.5gallon) and there are a couple roots coming out of the bottom of the pot. Should I attempt to transplant into a bigger pot or is there anything I can do?

I’m doing DWC buckets. I’m 5 weeks into veg and need to top up the water occasionally. Should I be pumping the old water out every so often and putting new solution in, or do you guys just keep topping with ph’d nute water? If you do swap out the water, what’s your procedure?

Hi everyone, I need some advice here. I am currently using a 200W dual spectrum CFL for Vegatation however I know that I will require a more powerful setup for flowering, if I want to get a good yield from all 3 plants. Can anyone tell me what would be better, HPS or LED?

Bigger leaves shading lower branches??
As you can see in my last photos (DAY 28) plants are developing lower side branches. Should I get rid off the larger leaves which shade the lower branches? I already tried to bend down the larger leaves to make room for the lower branches. What do you suggest? Veg for 15 more day

I read LST is the best way to get bigger yields on autoflowers. This ak is about 6" tall now with about 4 nodes. Do u think she is to small to train? When should I begin that? Thank you!
