Trimming autoflowers??

[Shy-man]

I’m on day 53 growing blueberry auto. An this thing has a lot of leaves. I feel like the leaves are stopping the light from getting to the lower bud sites. So the question I have is should I cut some of the fan leaves blocking the inside? Or just leave it be? You guys input would be greatly appreciated. I’m trying to get as much as I can out this baby lol

If its super thick, I'd say you'd be safe for a light trim. Just don't go overboard with trimming autos because it can stunt the growth.

What would you call overboard? This is my first grow so I really don’t know. Would 5-6 leaves every 2-3 days be ok?

my buds grow the same right down to the point of my light penetration
regardless of amount of foliage blocking plant parts. Removing leaves reduces photosynthesis.
leave leaves alone unless damaged or dying

Remove what you need to for ...Light penetration and increased air flow. You should see some shadows on the soil. Auto's are not the frail princess of the cannabis family.
She looks great!

With auto's?

NO, is the simplest answer.

Thanks I think I’ll just let the leaves be.
