Hi @LockDownGrow I usually defoliate the automatic plants slowly at the beginning of the fifth week, some leaves from the main branch and some brunches at the bottom of the plant, after a week at the beginning of the sixth week I do a little more defoliation on larger leaves that are shading but I only do this second defoliation if it is really necessary. the secret of defoliation in auto plants is to do it slowly and gradually so that the plant does not stress. good luck mate 👍

i dont really see the point of defoliating autos at all, but if you want you can remove the bottom layer of leafs, much more than that and it might impact bud spots. The way the plants are now, which is small in size, i would say dont defoliate at all. sorry if that's not the answer you're looking for ! Hope this helps ! 🚀

Virgin CBG "Pop" My PeppercornEver grown out a CBG plant before?
When should I harvest, mostly cloudy, some / no amber?
CBG is said to be the mother cannabinoid, if it degrades, "amber trichomes" will it still be CBG? or will it turn into THC/CBD/CBN/CBC or any of the other many cannabinoids?
Cheers,

Did I start flushing too early?I started flushing this plant on day 42 of bloom, and in just a week, I noticed a big change in the colouring. For future reference, I would like to hear from you guys if you think I started flushing too early. Also, how long do you think this plant has until harvest - 14 days?

MarsHydro FC-E (FC) series chip-panels protected from corrosion ?Hi,
about mars-hydro fc-e (fc) series:
Are the chips now protected (glass, plexy, acryl ..), for example like a SANLight-EVO or SecretJardin TLED ?
Asking because the old series (mars-hydro ts, sp) have no protection causing corrosion with high humidity.
I have up to 90 rh
