So it's now time for this little chunk to come down, I would of left her another week usually but because I need the tent to dry my other 2 strains she's having to be taken down a little premature for me don't get me wrong she's still ready all trichomes are milky just no sign of any Amber, this strain will now be my day time bud and the other 2 can be for night time ๐๐ป Happy Times Happy Growing ๐ฟ๐
@Fruitgrower, I think my problem is when autos first came out they weren't the best for defoliation training, I remember once trying the training and it pretty much stunted it ๐คฆ๐ป that's why I switched back to phenos but after some of the results I've had lately it seems autos have come on loads when it come to genetics ๐ well roll on Friday happy plucking day ๐๐๐๐
@Elmobud, I think autos are a lot more resilient than people are led to believe. So yes, I do believe it's ok to remove some leaves during all and any stage of the grow cycle. Check out some of my auto diaries, some had a lot of abuse at an early age and performed incredibly in the end. Remember in plant world, induced stress triggers the plant to grow stronger a bit like when we go to the gym. Keep growing โ๏ธ
@Fruitgrower, don't you worry bro all my strains get there final pluck on week 3 of flower after they've finished growing in height ๐ my only question is are you still OK to remover lower branches on autos at this stage or will this hurt my final yield?
