Hi guys, is it ok to defoliate some leafs while doing LST at the early stage of growing to get more light for the buds? Clones, day 10 after transplanting.

I would say yes!! I also encourage light defoliation through all phases of life but the first couple weeks just be careful not to take too much! Take a couple one night see how it reacts and a couple more the next until you get the results you want!

Taking one here and there wont hurt, sometimes to make the bend its better to remove a leaf that fight it.
Good luck

First Grow Help And FeedbackHello Grower,
OG Kush Flower Day 24: Lollipopped and defoliated 10 days ago. Can/should I defoliate again? The buds seem like they could get more light. Also, I noticed some sprinkles on the top leaves—could this be from too much P/K? Any tips and general feedback are welcome!

Removing of Big Leafs in Flower Phase ????Does it make sense to remove large leaves in the flowering phase to give the plant the opportunity to send more energy into the flowers or should you leave the larger leaves on because the plant also photosynthesises through them.

Defoliation AutoflowerHey fellow growers,
How should I approach defoliation with autoflowers during flowering? I'm thinking of removing lower leaves, especially near the soil. I prefer to be cautious to avoid mistakes. Reddit wasn't helpful as it seemed too critical. I hope for better insights here.

Serious problem with small buds.This is my diary https://growdiaries.com/diaries/198497-white-critical-express-super-silver-haze-grow-journal-by-italy-grower
the pistils are turning orange and the buds are small, maybe not enough room? Too much PK? Is it really a serious problem? What can I do? Some advice?

Pistils? Steps from now on?Hey this is my first plant. Went all good till now. Not the growth i had wished for, but im happy.
Day 21 now i see pistils clearly. Isnt it a bit early for pistils, because the plant is relatively small.
How should i proceed? LST? Topping an option or is it too late?

Too many buds because of LST? A yield full of popcorn buds??Should I cut off more buds to get a higher yield? I am afraid, that she will develope too many popcorn buds. Or is she looking allright and I can get a good yield without stressing her any more?

How and when to train?Hi,
first grow here. My automatics are at their 16th day above ground. I think I have to top one of my plants to keep her height in check. Where and when should I top her? should I rather only do LST or maybe even wait for now (but they are automatics, so I should be quick?)?
