I can never get tucking to be effective personally. I defoliate, the plants always seem to like it in my experience. Have fun!

Grow Questions
PottingShedstarted grow question 6 years ago
Guy's my 2 FB are 12/12 from seed. Very large fans and foliage. . She's starting to flower up... should I trim any leaves or tuck ?
Solved
Techniques. Defoliation

Wicked_Stixanswered grow question 6 years ago
I would trim a few of the top fan leaves that are blocking light from your lower bud sites. People say that autos dont like defoliation, but mine havent shown any signs of stress from it. I tried the leaf tucking and it turns into a constant daily battle trying to keep them out of the way. Just trim them to keep the light penetrating as far as you can into the lower branches.

Your temp is very low hence the reason for her slow growth.. A little space heater could do you wonders.

Sound like your plant was getting huge. How big is the tent? Also this is cool to see someone not hold down their leaves. Now I see the difference on how much bud I'll be able to achieve if I do use the tie down technique. Most Definetely Looking forward on my next grow.
