Hey, bro! 👋 They don't need defoliation! All their growth points are open! They have too little foliage to sacrifice it so crazily! They need leaves to form new growth points and internodes! I really don't recommend stripping such young girls! 👆 Just let them be and they'll be happy! 👌 Good luck, dude! ✊😇

Yes, you want to have all pruning and especially high stress training done in Veg, and ensure the plant is fully recovered before you go into flower. The advantage of photo's is you can keep them in veg and take your time. Get them over their stress first. Prune 30% of the plant at a time followed by a few days recovery in my practice. Then do another 30% and so on.

I started noticing drooping on one plant about 4 days ago. I know it’s not overwatering, but thought it might be under watering, but still no change. The leaves appear to be a very dark olive color. Watered with a little kelp as I thought maybe heat stress. Thoughts? Help?

Any thoughts on these trichomes? Plant is only about 6 weeks through flowering, but the trichomes looks super milky and somewhat amber, and its about 80% red hairs. Strain is supposed to be an 8-9 week flowering period. I prefer higher proportion milky, but this seems early....
