Should I do defoliation ? Hulk Berry Auto - 5th Week
GoodVibeSpreaderstarted grow question 4 years ago
Hi guys !
My plant is growing so far so good but I feel like she could gain a little bit more height and I could end with a better result with bigger yield if I cut some of the small leaves in the bottom of the plant
Any advice ?
Where should I cut ?

Cut the leaves down bottom that aren't getting any light.
Before that, however, cut the larger fan leaves towards the top THEN check the bottom leaves top see which ones aren't getting light. Never cut more than 1/3 of your fan leaves at a time. Be sure to do it soon. If you're in the stretch, don't do it or just take a few. You dont want to stress her out during the growth spurt.

Why does this site use g/w/plant vs gram/watt. It makes measuring multiple plants under a light look brutal. For example:
G/w/p = 0.1
G/w = 0.864
Or the calculation should be (gram total÷plant total) ÷ (watt÷plant total)
That way if you enter 1 or 9 the outcome is the sameWeek 9

Hey you fine horticulterists, another question thrown at you.
When scouting online I've seen that some growers put their ladies thru a 24 hour dark period before harvesting.
Is this something you do ?
Is it required ?
What are your preferences at harvest festival time ?

Should I defoliate the canopy a bit? The canopy is super dense and I’m sure there are some bud sites that are missing out on light, I’m also concerned about airflow to the buds. Is there a risk in defoliating at this stage in the grow, should I just let her do her thing?Week 15

Wondering if someone could take a look at my plant. I think it was a bit hot yesterday, not sure if it is heat stress. Not sure if it is Nitrogen Toxicity either because of the dark leaves. Maybe this is normal? Can someone shed some light for me? Thanks!Week 3
