Opinions? 108 days (15 weeks) DWC 4 5 gal buckets

These are a little over 3 months old, I definitely need to flip them like yesterday as their root zone is getting huge, should i defoliate further? I trimmed a decent amount under the canopy but mid way up there's alot of pre nature growth getting blocked and I will be getting all that before I flip them, the left side is running advanced nutrients ph perfect at 12-12-12 ml/gal between 5.5-5.8 ph and the right is running Drip nutrients at 12 ml/gal of base a and 10 ml/gal for base b with 2 ml/gal of their flex mineral buildup preventer (diluted bleach most likely)


I also have amaller plants in 1 gal fabric pots i believe? And some in solo cups Running flora flex coco coir with the same nutes at a weaker strength. Also running 7.5 ml/3gal of sillica and 7.5-6ml/3gal of calmag for everything too.

P.S they originally started on GH and Cronk nutes but then switched over to what I mentioned above now.

Yes. Major defoliation in my opinion. My plants are about 95 days old and already 40 days into flower.

Also make sure to do your defoliation a few days before flipping the lights. This gives the plants time to recover and helps prevent stress
