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.

At this point the garden feels a tad out of hand. I ask you pro growers and novices alike, what would you do? Defoliate and open up the canopy or let them ride? If I defoliate (I know there’s tons of guides on the web) but how much would you take out?

my plants wont be done at the same time by the looks of them. Does anyone see an issue with drying plants in the tent while still growing ? humidity is under control @ 50% RH is it necessary that the drying plants have darkness? if so why ?

Heavy train on autos
What do you guys think about my diarys last vid. Had autos and did heavy training on them, just to see how they react later on and di they survive stress. ( Accidentally super cropped one main branch) Do you think they are lost cause or will they bloom to their full potential?

Time to defoliate?
Alright so this autoflower sprouted on the 11th last month, making her 29 days old. At this point should I consider any defoliation or should I wait? Up until now I've just been doing LST and leaf tucking but I'm thinking she's about ready to stretch? Any advice is appreciated!

As you can see in the pictures, the grow tent is super packed and full of green. Its the beginning of week 5 of flower and one of my concerns is the light not penetrating through the top. Should I defoliate or trim large fan leaves to thin it out or just let it grow?

The buds are growing and I have questions if I should defoliate in a so small plant. Should I? What else can I do to increase yields? Is it close to harvest time?

If anyone actually looks at the temp/humidity monitor in my photos, you will see it goes from 40%s during lights on, to mid 50%s during lights off. Do I need to invest in a dehumidifier sooner rather than later, or will mid 50s during lights off not pose huge mold risks in flower

For the folks that use Oregon's only nutrients, i know they say ph should be 6.4 for calcium to be best absorbed but does that still apply in coco substrates? I been slowly swinging my ph up and down over a few waterings to try to get the best range of absorption.

Aplicar defoliación??
I see they already have a lot of leaves. Would you recommend a defoliation? I'm hesitant, as I don't want to stress them too much and slow down growth in this last week, although I think it would be good for light penetration. Or should I lower the light a bit instead?
