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.

Trimming
I acideently snapped a branch a little bit but it's still hanging on. Shall I cut it off or leave it?. She is an autoflower. Also should I cut off the very bottom leaf and new node its growing?

How do you tell when it is time to water your plants and is it a good idea to put an inch of perlite on top of the growing medium?

What are your thoughts on defoliation on an Auto. I am approaching week 4 and have some thick leafs covering new flowers. Should I trim these off to allow the new flowers some light or let it be?

Cutting fan leaves
Just cut my fan leaves 😳 the stems we’re turning people, if I’m not mistaken it’s an early sign of an old leave that’s not as efficient in the photosynthesis? and it was covering the new growth, Or should I have waited?

Do I need to trim more?
Do I need to trim more? This is my first successful attempt, 2nd grow ever. First was a disaster (this one too, almost.) I am petrified that I trimmed too much. But - when I see others plants, I'm questioning if I actually need to do more. Thank you in advance!

I’m currently at week 7 flower, using biobizz nutes, and wondering when I should be flushing? People say a week? Problem is my GDP clone looks a little further along, and I’m struggling to see the trichomes with my cheap loupe. I’m worried I’m already in the harvest window :(

Defoliation. Yes or No?
Want to hear some other opinions on defoliation of fan leaves. Do y'all defoliate or no? Everything I have ever learned about plants tells me not to defoliate. Why would you cut off the plants solar panels that absorb the light and store nutrients to drive photosynthesis?

defogliazione e lollippopinng
hey, I’d like a couple of your opinions regarding defoliation + lollipopping. I’ve reached the point where I need to defoliate my jungle, but I’m afraid of messing up. I can already do lollipopping, but defoliation remains a mystery.

Defoliating outdoor plants. Yes/no
Do you guys defoliate outdoor plants? If yes how do you choose when is the right time to defoliate a flowering plant? Size of flowers, after stretch or maybe just few weeks after starting flowering phase? Thank for the info, I am trying to understand if I fucked it up 😬
