Remove lower branches
Maggie_de_Blockstarted grow question 6y ago
Would it be beneficial to also remove these lower branches? It's my first grow so I'm not sure if this would be useful. I'm in about week 3-4 of flower, but don't know if this would create bigger buds on the main branches. Experienced growers help me out pls xp

At this point don’t do big cuts, remove some sprouts at the bottom but don’t go to take out branches. Go with what u have and take it as experience for the next time, so u can learn yourself without damage your yeald ✌️🏽Watch at the end who is better to remove before flip the plant into flowering or where act more with lollipopping . Hope to be clear and useful

I have defoliated the lower parts of the plants, now I'm wondering how much more to take off?? I cant tell where the ideal spot of keeping leaves is. I am taking off inner fan leaves as much as I can, but am wondering, how much is safe.

Complicate
trim auto for compact grow (space bucket)I want to focus on a few colas when growing this compact, 5gal bucket is max width. Should I leave the 4 or 5 fittest and trim the lower branches off entirely or just let the taller dominate and avoid stressing this auto (space is the obvious issue here)? 🙏thanks community.

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

Nutrients and DefoliationHow does she look, any nutrient changes needed? Just starting flowing stage. I have read mixed reviews, Some say remove all large leaves others keep them, some lollipop. Looking for big buds, What diary and weeks to look at to show a good example of what you prefer.

Too late to defoliate?Should i try to defoliate these two auto girls a little more, or is it too late into flowering?
If so, which leaves are safe to remove?
They are approximately 45 days from sprout and have been speeding through their fases, so it's been hard to compare to others schedules

Should I defoliate during flower?Should I defoliate during flower? I have two Green Crack plants growing right now. I am in early flower stage and one of the plant has some dense foliage under the SCROG canopy that is hurting light penetration and zapping energy I want the plant to use for growing dense buds.

Help me Understand Defoliation and Pruning around 17-21 dayscofStill learning lots. I’m at day 18 of Flower and would like some feedback on what’s considered 1/3 of the plant for lollipopping effectively. Do I take the bud sites and fan leaves from everything under 1/3 of the plants total height or do I take bottom third existing foliage?
