These are auto northern lights from seedsman. They're about 6 1/2 to 7 weeks. And I feel like as well as have been told they are small for the age. So I was thinking some light defoliation to help get some light especially on the smaller bushier one
I would normally agree some plants after stretch need some defoliation but only enough for good airflow. These are autos and the airflow capability looks good. Autos are basically on a timer and anything you do to stunt them could cost you on the yield and quality.
Oh yup didn't read they were autos, yeah I've never grown autos and have heard that topping etc can have negative effects on them, so in this case if it was me I probably wouldn't either
i wouldnt touch um,to close , at 7 weeks i be more about trying to get some that dark green out of leaves instead,once she started eating herself good,and only when i was close to harvest i do cut all fans off,just to make a harvest more simple for me,with all the fans gone it is easier for me to just cut the stalk and hang the bitch,makes triming hell of lot easier for me,but i cut um and next day harvest and hang,im lazy bastard hahahh

Definitely no expert with these autos I seem to dry them ! lol but I don’t take any normal leaves! Tried it, didn’t work for me lost out on yield in my opinion
