Hello Friends. This is my second plant, still on my first grow, so I naturally have concerns if it is going well. I definitely made a few mistakes. Its an autoflower plant around 65 days since sprout. I already had my first plant go completely to Hell once it got to flowering, so I am hoping to catch any issues long before they turn into real issues. Any help or suggestions appreciated.
I did defoliation from the bottom to get airflow and light and removed alot from the sides and front to help it fit in the small tent. Shes only 8 inches from the light but thats the best I can do, I have no more room to raise the light.
Is there anything that sticks out as problematic or suggestions?

Looks good so far, are there any specific issues you’re worried about? I’d move up that lower fan so it hits the plant, I see that the other fan is higher (not a bad thing). I have one fan per plant, hitting about 3/4 the way up the plant. How do you have your exhaust setup? If you move it to the outside of the tent, it gives you more room inside. I have all my exhaust setup on top of the tent, I have it to where the 6" hose is drawing air from the tent and pushing it through the filter instead of drawing air through the filter.

She looks beautiful and healthy. I had one shoot up.tall like that so I took the super tall branches tied them loosely and slowly started to bend them down. After a day or two, the top colas will turn upward towards the light. Then as they grow close, you can keep taking 8down a little.

Nothing specific that I am worried about yet but its good to get a second opinion because I don’t want to overlook something that maybe obvious to an experience grower.
The fan on the bottom was actually angled up but it keeps dropping down because its a cheap piece of crap. I’ll move it up a bit but I’ll probably upgrade that fan to something better.
I do have my exhaust on the top of the tent drawing the air out and I have my light zip tied to the very top of the tent as far up as I could get it. The tent is 5.5 feet tall, so the plant is close to 48 inches tall at its peak.
I hear ya, plant looks healthy so far

I would not do anymore defoliation. At this point, you want to lessen any stress and let her fatten up. If any leaves look in the way, try tucking them 1st.

Definitely done with defoliating at this point, probably did a little more than I should have but I am hoping she should be ok. Cheers!

She’ll be just fine. Those top buds are going to be huge.
