Asking opinion about my little defoliation
Eliott42started grow question 4 years ago
I did some defoliation on the biggest leaves tht were impossible to tuck under others. I think I did okay but i'm just asking you guys if I made some mistakes. In any way I can't go back.
What's your opinion/recommendation?

Hey so it looks pretty good. You got the basic idea, removing the lager fan leaves that we’re shading out lower sites. It looks like you did your LST first which is always smart. Defoliate after LST if your going to LST wt all because that can tend to expose sites without defoliating. It looks like you’ve left the lower broad fan leaves for now which is fine but I’d even prune those off. It’ll promote more growth to the top and honestly in the end you’ll be chopping that off anyways if your going to be doing Lollipopping. Even if your not the lower fan leaves will be shaded out by new top growth and just consume much more energy From your plants growth than it contribute to the plants growth.
All in all things are looking good and seem to be moving along nicely. Good luck and happy growing

Looks good. Early defoliation is about avoiding unwanted stretch on any growth.
Try to preserve total area of leaf coverage. This will quickly fill in if slightly reduced, initially.
Don't take off more than 1/3rd to avoid potential shock.
Don't take off all leaves at any 1 node. Maybe, there's an exeption to this, but it'd be rare.
Stick to that and you really can't make a mistake.

How to change soil type in grow profile?Is there a way to change or amend the stats at the top of your grow page?
I am switching growing mediums and a few other things, moving from indoors to outdoors, from Pro-Mix Organic to Pro-Mix BX.
I can change and modify everything else, but not soil "type" or brand.
Cheers

mulchingI am in the mediterranean clima zone with very hot days in the summer. Is it worth or advisable to cover de soil with some clay balls to prevent water waste and water evaporation? I have noticed that the upper part of the soil has dried out but the roots are still damp.
