1st Indoor

I take a controversial position on this topic. Excessive leaves can inhibit flower growth because they harbor humidity and crowd the flowers, not because the flowers themselves need direct light. @ExperimentGreen made a valuable point about taking it easy on the defoliation. Provided you have vertical space, near the end of the veg stage, consider moving your light higher (or plant lower) to induce stretch, exposing bud sites to air and room to grow. Defoliate the lower leaves that are stacked upon one another. Does this work? It doesn’t not work, meaning my results are inconclusive. It appears to work, but I am not conducting clinical trials here.

Love the thickness of you're stock next to that loonie :P You're plants are well on there way to making you that kick ass medicine man ! Keep up the solid work and best of luck on the remainder of you're grow ! -Happy Growing! 😎

Gorgeous, good job overall

Fire, or no?

Kudos for not topping her. It all balances out, and an apical cola is very pretty

Looks really good

use a razor to shave off that naner and check twice a day thoroughly to make sure that was the last of them. no need to waste the whole plant or grow over this, not yet

To answer your question: The first plucking can be done after the 3d week of flower, once the stretch has finished. After that there are 2 ways: do a second major defoliation 3 weeks later or light defoliation every few days.

Hey there, I'm still pretty new at this, but I was wondering if the buckets had holes in the bottom for proper drainage. I may be wrong but it looks like the leaves are drooping from overwatering. Best of luck! 👍 https://www.growweedeasy.com/overwatering-cannabis

Happy new year my friend! Your grow is looking fantastic and healthy and I wish you best in this next year growing some amazing plants and yielding yourself large amounts of bud. Cheers!

Awesome looking plants love how bushy they are!

What time-frame are you looking at for the flower switch? They look healthy!

Best of luck with your first indoor grow Al_Pine! Ill be checking back to see how its going 😎

Best of luck with the grow!

The one in the 5 gal pale back right is the clear winner. curious when to start clipping off big leaves. no formation of sex organs yet

What were you talking about Budrick? naner?

Hello HighTV, Any time now, They are coming into 8 weeks but the first week was a seedling spectrum and 2nd week was half way to full veg spectrum. next is a pre-flower spectrum. hopefully they will stretch.

Thanks BigNate89 :)
