Started to do some light defoliating near the end of this week to improve air flow and help light penetration, things were getting pretty hectic at the top of the canopy.
I’ve removed quite a bit of leaves (although it’s still a bit hard to tell by the pics) and so far it hasn’t seemed bothered in the least, so I’ll continue pulling a few more into next week.
@aNauticalDisaster, The plant is in pre-flowering. At this point it's okay to take out some leaves. Start by removing the ones that are further down and no longer catch light. After doing this wait a few days to see how she reacts. I guarantee you she will love it. After a few days of recovery, dare you to take some more. DO NOT FORGET. DO THE DEFOLIATION FROM THE BOTTOM TO THE TOP. After the second month don't do Defoliation if you don't have a lot of practice. But dare to do as I told you 💪⚡🤞 jahh bless
@Fatbudz thanks man! I just wasn’t sure if I should or not tbh, I see mixed opinions online about defoliating autos so I was a bit hesitant - this is only my 2nd grow and first time topping.
Think I should still do some? We’re on day 40 now
