Defoliate lower fan leaves on Autoflowering Lemon Haze???
Pepperoni91started grow question 4 years ago
Should I defoliate a few fan leaves towards the bottom of the plant? She is very very wide and bushy. I feel like the bottom would produce some large branches and buds if there was more light penetrating. And there are so many leaves tucking only gets so much light through.

I regularly defoliate extra leaves that block light to new growing branches and interfere with the development of internodes. Don't forget that you grow inflorescences, not leaves, so you don't need to feel sorry for them! I often even remove the upper leaves so that they do not cast a shadow on the developing inflorescences

Hi @Pepperoni91 yes mainly the leaves that are shading the buds. automatic plants hate stress the secret of defoliation is to do it little by little so that the plant does not stress and be late. good luck mate 👍

What to do with veg?The plant is one and a half weeks into a 12/12 light cycle. The foilage has grown like crazy in the last week and I'd like to trim it back but I don't know if I should. I had planned on stripping most fan leaves on the 20th day of flower.
