My first autoflower

Right now I think your going to do more harm than good. You want to wait until the pre-flower has finished before defloating. Then you want to pull off all the fluff at bottom and around the base of the stock... If you want to give bit more light to the branches tie a string around your pot. Then tie the branches, and fasten to the pot. Don't stress the branches just a bit to spread the light. Cheers.

Looks like you still have at least 3 weeks left! just keep growing, Ive had some 90 day autos take up to 120 days!

Hey! I would wait a bit more.. Harvest window opens when you start getting amber pistils. Normally when there's 70% amber and 30% white pistils they're ready but that's not always the case. The best way to check is looking at the trichomes. Clear trichomes haven't reached their full potencial yet, cloudy ones are full of THC and amber are losing THC while gaining CBN. So depending on your preference whether you want more of a head high or body high. I normally use a 60x magnifying glass to look at trichomes when there are about 50/50% white and amber pistils. I harvest when after examining and finding 70% cloudy trichomes and 30% amber trichomes. For me that's a prefect combination, depending on the strain as well. Have in mind if you use nutrients you'll need to flush the roots, watering with PHed water only for at least a week. Good luck and Happy Growing!😃🌱🌿🌲
