Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?

DrBrotstarted grow question 11 days ago

First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

it's tough to be certain, but you may need a bit less light to promote a bit longer internodes.. or it's just a runty plant.. flip a coin. no.. don't defoliate the large solar panels to get light on tiny leaves.. this would be a net-negative. read the 'to defoliate or not' in dr photons corner of cocoforcannabis website... it covers this topic thoroughly.

i think you stunted it cuz of hot soil, so first month no growth.. and then suddenly did something and now u have this, and you wanna give it more stess??? first learn see what it does and keep it healthy.. start again get different soil maybe better light and enjoy the learning curve.

i guess too hot soil which destroyed your first month, and very strong genetics that you still made it.

Leaf and growth removal I’m always so cautious about growth and leaf removal. I always leave to much to late into flower and then get scared to remove it after. Would it be wise to start removing now end of week 4 beginning of week 5? Or should I leave the smaller struggling growth and larger leaves?

Should I be worried with yellow and brown tipped leaves? Will it affect quality or yield? Can I correct this? With my nutes I used sturdy stalk and Ph’d water 6.3 and I feel it could be the lights but it also started from over feeding Nutes. B4RNS called it!

Defoliating Autos in week 7 after stretch I defoliated my AK420 Auto in week 7 and took at least 1/3 off in order to expose bud sites. Do you like it? Would you defoliate even more? Or do you refrain from defoliating autos at all?

Autoflower defoliation?If you look at my latest pics like day 48, does anyone think I should do some fair amount of defoliation? I have picked some leaves that block buds but am torn whether to keep her bushy as is or if it would benefit at all from some decent amount of defoliation.

Defo or not Week 3 I’m thinking I may do a heavier defoliation to expose bud sites but have had seeds in the past and am wondering if defo stress could be to blame. On the other side of it that canopy is packed and dark underneath, no light is getting through. Anybody have any suggestions?
