I would not, there is almost no future popcorns, all flowers looks well formed. No need to stress, you already run out of space, Temps, humidity will become bigger things to worry than few underdeveloped buds here and there ...

I'd say some lollipopping is needed a bit. (Clean the ends) the shoots that are far behind. They only hinder above.

Hallo, Ich habe meine in der dritten Woche gelollipoppt! Also kannst du bedenkenlos machen und am besten noch 3 Tage die Planze ruhen lassen. Ich denke nicht das sie einen schaden davon bekommen. Allerdings all zu viel Zeit würde ich mir nicht mehr lassen. Ansonsten sehen sie Super aus! Happy Grow 🍀

I have this diaried for harvest 2nd week of August, based on breeder data (65-70 days flowering time). I turned to flowering light cycle 47 days ago. I read somewhere that breeder flowering time starts post stretch, so I added 14 days. Have I calculated this right?

Should I cut fan leaves (autoflowering)?I have this Dinafem auto (first grow ever). A friend told me to cut all the fan leaves and bottom branches. His claim is that the buds that these branches yield are too small and it is more productive to make the plant focus its energy on the top buds. What do you think? Thanks!

Is it too much, or enough defoliation?Would be good to hear your thoughts on this. Personally, I keep doing this and think I have positive results by creating multiple branches with equal distance to each other. (I pluck one stem then leave the next and go on like this.) Thanks, Y

Being a total novice when it comes to autos I was wondering should I top her soon, leave it a while or not top at all? I keep reading conflicting reports so thought I'd ask actually growers. Thanks in advance :)

Has anybody had any luck and/or experience with those RapidLED Far Red Initiator Pucks? https://www.rapidled.com/far-red-initiator-puck/ I'm gonna be growing autos primarily, so not looking to recreate the Emerson Effect, but rather just accelerate growth.
