Is it too much, or enough defoliation?Would be good to hear your thoughts on this.
Personally, I keep doing this and think I have positive results by creating multiple branches with equal distance to each other. (I pluck one stem then leave the next and go on like this.)
Thanks,

Hey - Big time noob here. I was going to grow on a 12-12 from seed but didn't realize how much it would stunt growth. I changed from 12-12 but in my grow diary I can't change from that. I only had 12-12 for a couple of days. I'd like to remove the strategy from my grow diary to pWeek 2

What is the best indication for me that she is ready to harvest given that i do not have a good magnifying glass to observe the trichromes? So far i was thinking that if 70-80% of pistils turn orange on a bud its a sign that its time to harvest the cola.Week 11

Just Stopped Stretch! - Gotta Do, What I Gotta Do?Against protocol I have hacked on this plant in Week 8. Way branchy! I got into pruning a dozen long scraggly lower runners. I could take out another 12+ wimpy branches easy and open it up good bit for light/air - and then leave it alone? Much anticipated waste, so gamble?Week 8

Defoliation?Day 21 of flower, do I need to do any further defoliation? Everything looks connected to a bud site so I'm apprehensive about removing anything else. Afraid of running into PM at some point as weather gets warmer and RH rises. At 45-55rh now. May get a small dehumidifier soon.Week 9
