Themanhucanstarted grow question 4 years ago
When would be best to defoliate the biggest two, I have taken some bottom fan leaves off this week to expose the lower bud sites.
Topped the widow over a week ago, responded well, with 2 colas currently growing.
Under 450 of draw power what should I be expecting on yields?

Hey Growmie,
Any time is a good time to defoliate except for in flower. Just remember to do it gradually and you'll be fine. Hopefully, I answered your question and remember ..."Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time"

What Would You Do: Day 40 Defol, Yes / No?One plant's fan leaves are building trichomes, but it has more fan leaves than the other plant & they are needing to be tucked daily.
Both plants never had issues with the previous defoliating. 3-4 wks left before chop day.
So, would you defoliate one last time?

When should I defoliate and/or prune?I'm trying to Scrog and Defoliate to improve yield and quality. When should I turn to 12/12 cycle and when to heavily defoliate? Indica strains so shouldn't grow that much height, right? Now I'm just spreadin them wider around the net since they are growing bushy/relatively short

How much lower foliage should I remove?How much if any foliage or stray branches should I remove from the bottom of this plant? She's super healthy so I don't think it will be an issue with stress, but I don't want any undue stress. Should I just leave it? I'd like to avoid popcorn buds all together.

Hi, It's my first grow and I need advice again. I have a small Orion F1 auto, she's flowering for 24 days (47 days old). I have these buds under scrog that don't get enough light and don't seem to grow fast enough. Do I remove them? Will it help or stun my plant at this stage? TY

Mainline/Manifold: Trimming fan leaves after done with topping.Finishing up the topping portion of mainlining. P2 to be Nebula-Haze style and P3 to be Nugbuckets style. I'll be trimming growth tips other than from the 8 cola sites on each. Still keep un-shaded fan leaves below those levels? A lot online shows all lower fan leaves trimmed
