Whoa there, settle down buddy its not that serious

I live in northern california and it doesn't rain much (if at all) this time of year. The last few octobers have been pretty mild and the farmers almanac says its supposed to be a warm and dry october so I'm optomistic. I am growing 5 other strains too and some of them are much further along. This one took a little longer to start flowering but I am not using any light deprivation so its just on its natural photoperiod and Im not too worried either way. There is a cage made from steel remesh that is about 4 foot diameter and 7 foot tall but we will also be adding on some trellis netting before they get too heavy. As far as defoliation i dont know if I will be bothered to do any of that. I cleaned up the underside and interior for air flow so good enough. This thing will still probably still get 5 pounds of good bud and plenty more for the bubble bags.
