Should I start over?

Hey Fellow Growmies
Can I defoliate my autos? They are super bushy and I want to expose the lower bud sites. But not at the expense of stressing them out again . So your feedback would be very helpful to me.
Thanks

I do defoliate, a few leaves at a time when they are in vigorous growth

Awesome they are vigorous now . But I will take it slow and work from the very bottom then work upward.

Hello your ph should be higher i shoot for 6.2 in coco but between 5.8 to 6.3 and rip them out and start again nothing wrong with your pot size i would say if your ph has been that low at 5.6 thats your problem

I second this. Even tho most people hate to worry about ph it’s vital especially during the intro to nutes. A good ph will better help the roots uptake the nutrients in the water allowing for a good feed! If your ph is off nutrient lockout will happen!

Uea I figured that out like 3 weeks ago. I bought an Apera Ph meter. And the plants love it. Thanks for the input though

I been having a hell of a time with my humidity levels. Every time I turn up my Ac infinity T6 exhaust fan past level 2 it raises the humidity up 6 degrees higher than the humidity in my lung room. But if I leave it on level 1 or 2 it is only 2 degrees higher than the lung room. I am confused I thought that the exhaust would lower the humidity atleast to the same level as the lung room. Idk what's going on here but apparently I have to save up for a Dehuey. Hopefully I can get through this grow without one.

I think you should still rip them out and start over. lol
how are they doing bud?
My harvest week is just under three weeks from now. I'll get some pics up tomorrow.
also, do you know how to get them to turn purple?

I defoliated mine, all that lower stuff that doesn't get enough light doesn't produce anything good from what I've learned from debacco univ. vids.
I just kind of picked a height and everythign under there is gone, I also take out the leaves that are getting really bad. They're done for. it seems to help them more than hinder. Just don't top autos ever lol.

To get them to turn purple you need to give cold Temps during the dark period. There is a lil more too it than that. I am not very well versed in that subject. Maybe someone a lil more experience can chime in?
