Does removing fan leaves make buds grow bigger?

Hey Guys! I’m doing two autos - Runtz Auto by Zamnesia. Currently entering the 3 week. They have precisely 15 days from seed. What do you think of topping? Or half topping? Regardless, i found some different answers, positive and negative about this method of training.

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 :)

Any opinions on a dark period before harvest? Worth doing? If so how long—24/48/72 hours? Anyone notice any difference or benefit from having it before the chop?

I'm curious I've been flushing her out, the guy at the grow store is trying to get me to use a bloom booster right now. Doesn't make sense to me. But I do want the best result. Do I let her go? It give her a boost? Thanks!

How's she looking ? Yesterday I noticed that her leaves were hanging so I first thought about over- or underwatering but then i noticed that some leaves are twisting, like the top is facing the soil so I hang the LED a bit higher. Just wanted to know if she's still stressed.

Why would my PH level jump from 5.6-5.8 to 7+ in a 24 hour period? I leave for 2 days every weekend so no one to tend to my plants. I don't want to deal with a lock out.

This is my first grow. How do things look at day 5? This is the fifth day from germed seeds placed in the soil. I think things look ok, but I have nothing to base that on. Nothing but pH water at 5.8-6.0. ladies are right around 2" tall.

Should I remove some of the dense foliage as I start LST, or wait? Other suggestions appreciated!
The Durban Poison and Jack 47 are very dense, with tight nodes. I’m beginning LST this week to get more light to more of the branches, but should I prune some of the excess foliage? If so, how do I decide what to remove? Thanks in advance for your help!

Now at 19 days to harvest our best looking CP has a brown section. No webbing so I don't think it's mites. Should I cut out that section? What do you think is the problem?

First post / question as newbie, I’m at the point of flushing my space mango in soil with perlite 65/35. Flushed around 40-50 litres of ph water at 130 ppm, ppm went up and over 1000+ then came back down. Is this normal? Running out at 204 now but the last of drained water at 394
