No worries, but so you know an for future record., it is your leafs which are preventing the lower bud sites plumping up. but your doing it the ideal an safe way which is wise to gaint he experince of the whole grow. keep up the good work.Havent needed to defoliate since most of the bud production is on the upper half also i did a lil bit of lst on her earlier on in the grow other than that cant wait to see these bud get plumper.
Seems like i picked a decent auto considering i couldnt find any grow journals or such with this strain sorta picked it blind sighted
Peace and PoT
