@FrostRailz, thanks!! Definitely helps. Haven't seen many diaries about the chocolate skunk, so glad to see yours :) they are so bushy and tucking isn't cutting it, lol.
@Moonshine, 😊 yes do it! It didnt hurt them at all just pull the biggest leafs on the bottom half of the plant and only on the inside of the plant blocking budsites. I literally selective defoiliated every 3 days or so, until i felt comfortable with the canopy. Hope that helped!
@FrostRailz,
Thank you, I'm so excited. Been reading a ton about defoliating and whether to do it or not with autoflowers. Did your girls do okay with it?
