Can I do a big defoliation with 2 weeks left before harvest?
Mr_Weeds_Autosanswered grow question 5 years ago
Hey Growmie,
I'm a big fan of defoliation but since your so far into flower I wouldn't advise it, I would just let her finish up and let the leaves die off during the flush. Really Not suppose to defoliate after week 3 of flower. Hopefully, I answered your question and remember ..."Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time".

Are you betting on too much too late or good work?These last three days of the week, will be crucial to see how leaves on the tops of the branches react and if they can stimulate the even growth of flowers along the height of the branches. I've pruning too much (or too late) to hope for beautiful branches full of big flowers?3 years ago

Defoliation during first weeks of flower?Hello growers, hope you are all doing great!
I have a question about defoliating:
What and how much?
I know the theory, big fan leaves blocking light for lower bid sites, but how much is too much?
Could i take like half of the fan leaves today, and another big amount next week?Week 11
