EuphoricDiariesstarted grow question 5 years ago
Q1: I did a slight bit of “lillipopping”, cutting lower sun leaves and small energy wasting budsites. Along with this and slight bits of LST at this stage will it effect bud density for the better or worse?
Q2: would a larger space now be worth the effort (1.5x1.5x2m tent)?Thanks

Keep in mind that the light needed for a 1.5*1.5 (2.25 m2 or 24sq ft) area would be 3 times what you have now (35 to 40 LED watts per sq ft) so around 900 watts, so unless you plan to upgrade your light, there's no point in a bigger tent. Lollipoping will make the plant focus its energy into the top colas and LST will help in keeping an even canopy to make the most of your light

Remove leaves from auto?Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

Defoliation late in flower on Auto'sI like to defoilate, If I were to pick majority of the fan leaves off of these plants being Auto's, will they react or stress too much? I like to defoil near the end of flower to really push all the focus to the budsites. Happy Growing!3 months ago

Northern Lights Auto, quite short and bushy, fan leaves shielding light - should I defoliate?First time grower with a quite short Northern Lights Auto in week 6. The fan leaves seem to shield a lot of light from the inner leaves, also touching ground. Should I trim the fan leaves? Or should I keep them, since it already seems stressed enough for it's short life…

So many leaves! Should I defoliate even more?I defoliated just before and even during the first week of flowering, but she keeps growing so many leaves even during the second week of flowering.
Should I defoliate right now or wait a couple of weeks? I worry I could halt the flowering or cause even more useless stress...

Defoliating outdoor plants. Yes/noDo you guys defoliate outdoor plants?
If yes how do you choose when is the right time to defoliate a flowering plant? Size of flowers, after stretch or maybe just few weeks after starting flowering phase?
Thank for the info, I am trying to understand if I fucked it up 😬

Light penetration for inner defoliation?? OutdoHigh, y’all. This is Dark Star from T.H. Seeds. She’s a broad-leaved Indica 3 weeks into flower. Looking up into my plant I’m getting 15% light pen or so. Should I be shooting for a certain percentage or perhaps clean out a majority of the inner veg? 2nd year (legal) grower.
