My advice is to plan for more space than you think you need. I started in a 2'x2' with a 90w QB. I thought a 4'x4' was huge, but now I light 25 Sq. ft. with enough wattage for 32. Lol it's hard to stop.

Awesome. Let us know how it goes. I have always been curious about defoliating autos and how they would handle it/the best timing of when to do it etc.
The guys at Mephisto said they had the best luck with just tucking leaves, so that's been the plan for me.
Curious to see if defoling will work though, as that is what I do to my regular plants.

Doesn't hurt or slow them down at all... Neither does topping...

It's too bad you're not in Canada, I would send you some seeds to tide you over , I have 70+ Mephisto seeds here.

Looks awesome.
Did you do any lst/topping or anything?

I topped the one to the far left, haven't decided if I'll top the other two way to the right. Have to get em at the right time, I think. Maybe early stretch or right before. The one in the middle isn't topped. I like to use the single "tomato ring" to spread them out a bit. You can see on the front of the pvc frame I've used plant ties to pull her apart as well. I may do a scrog (on a different set of autos, not these haha)

A few months ago, I did a side-by-side of a topped and non-topped Ripley's OG. No difference at all between the two, and no slow down in growth.
Yesterday, I FIM'ed a Creme De La Chem. This morning - brand new growth. Amazing.

Last summer i topped 2 ROG at 5th node and they were over 4 ft. Branches were leaning and breaking from buds. 10 oz plus a single nug i didn't jar between the 2. 3.9 gal coco autopots. They had training i could've got more on the lowers but they were huge and wide with topping. Went to 82 days so no real slow down on the topping.

Careful Nitty. All 4 of those will push that 4x4 for sure. You'll love them.

Hey Frank! I'm still around...mostly lurking though
AVT is strong producer. I highly recommend pushing her to 11-12 weeks as she seems to take on a much more mellow feeling than harvesting at 10...which I did once.
