I continued defoliation. I removed all main leaves and first blooming internode which was unuseful to harvest.
We had bad weather along the week but the internode took as reference for mesurement had doubled since first defoliation. General density have improved.
I proceded to a bit-more-drastical second defoliation. I'm a newbie so I'm proceding by tryouts and since the poor production of the plant at these growth conditions I don't think I can do lot of damages.
Hello!
Since my plant had a slow growth, is it useful doing defoliation at this stage?
Is it useful at all doing it on a outdoor Auto? I've read somewhere that is better not touching autos at all since them fragility.
Many thanks.
Leave her.. she's a bit too far along. She's a little small but any of the small amounts of foliage you take off will most likely just stunt her/shock her further and do no good for you. It's a learner plant and it happens. We generally do very little defoliation outdoors.. Some crazy old grower told us something about it attracting more pests which kind of makes sense when you think about it. We don't spray or use pesticides or anything like that, we use physical barriers to keep pests away. We spray if we have too but never before..
