Can safely snip at least 5 or 6 of the big, top leaves.. leaving the little ones to grow out again :)

My first grow experience i potted straight into final pots, this time i have used starter pots as ive increased the final pot size and wasnt confident keeping the soil right for seeds. Anyway how long would you guys reccomend leaving in starters before final pots? Thanks 🍁👽

enaught defoliation?
Would you guys still defoliate? If not because its enaught leafs taken off Or because its too late in flower? Just talking about big leafs which block some light from other buds.. Im not sure if its better to just let them alone for rest of flower or if its still beneficial...🙌

Hey everyone. I’m having a little trouble keeping humidity up now that I’m in flower. Does anyone know how to keep the humidity in a tent up during flower without misting? Really don’t want to risk mold

I would like help with Mainlining. The stems are very thick, should i try to wait for them to get a few inches above my cut and maybe become more flexible and pliable to bend horizontal and make my second cut, (2 > 4 colas) or try bending now? I'll add photos

Hey Growers, Heading into flowering now and I'm wondering if my plants could benefit from some light defoliation? I've LST'd them as best I can to help even the canopy and help the light penetrate lower down as well. I'm just a little hesitant to defoliate because they are Autos.

More defoliation?
More defoliation? I’ve done some pretty serious (to me anyhow) defoliation to this beautiful lady and would like a more experienced eye to let me know if I should stop? Thanks to lots of great advice from here she’s already looking much better.

Just Stopped Stretch! - Gotta Do, What I Gotta Do?
Against protocol I have hacked on this plant in Week 8. Way branchy! I got into pruning a dozen long scraggly lower runners. I could take out another 12+ wimpy branches easy and open it up good bit for light/air - and then leave it alone? Much anticipated waste, so gamble?

trim auto for compact grow (space bucket)
I want to focus on a few colas when growing this compact, 5gal bucket is max width. Should I leave the 4 or 5 fittest and trim the lower branches off entirely or just let the taller dominate and avoid stressing this auto (space is the obvious issue here)? 🙏thanks community.

Keep or trim the "popcorn" buds?
I cannot provide any light to this area they to deep down the canopy, should i cut them. If yes, all at once? The only thing i worry, if i cut the buds the plant get more power and will rise up in hight and grwoing to close to my light. Thank you

One of my plants has something going on with it. Cbd Tonic #1 has a couple bluish leafs, and some purplish red petioles most are still green. I think it may need some phosphorous or a micro nutrient. Also the two main top also has this weird wrinkle, other tops are a bit bluish
