Hey Friend, I would say you shouldn't do any stress at this age. Defoliation at this time will not make so much different to yield. But by doing stress, you can cause not only your final yield but also other problems. Happy Growing... ✌️ 💪

Hey friend , It’s not recommended to defoliate /stress your flowering plant during that phase but , if it’s really needed and plants are really crowded there , you better tuck some leaves out . But not a lot at a time not to stress the plant 🌱 ✌️✌️

A few leaves (small & big) turn yellow from the tips while veins stay green. Also rusty and brown spots appear on affected leaves. Buds not fattening or at least very slow. I used BioGrow/Calmag & flower fertilizer but always only 0.5 ml because I noticed a slight nute burn.

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.

Defoliation/LST for Northern Lights Auto Hello! I am struggling a bit with deformation on my NL auto. Please see pics from week 7. This is after defoliation and it looks like fan leaves will overshadow cola sites again in a few days. Should I defoliate more or leave it? Currently managing with LST but leaves are getting bunched.

I have 6 different relative humidity sensors in the 4x8 tent all near each other. At any one time, they all have vastly differing readings. The lowest reads 50%, the highest is 78% at one point in time. How do I know which one is most accurate?

Smaller stems under the net during Flowering (Defoliation and ScrOG)I put a ScrOG net and now I am wondering if I should delete everything under the net or leave also the smaller leaves and stems for the flowering. You can see in my diary how the plants are. I'm afraid that leaving also smaller stems under the net would decrease my harvest

Sativa Defoliation in Flower?How, when, or should I defoliate this Alice Nicole sativa in flower? She's a mess, and could use better light penetration and airflow. What leaves to remove?

Defoliation in flowering stage Now that she's in the flowering stage is it still safe to trim and tidy the big fan leaves to help light penetration? If so, how much can I take off? What leaves should stay or go? Is it safe to keep training her new branches? Thanks again, all help is appreciated.
