Defoliation soon after Supercropping
bigbud1080started grow question 4 years ago
I am thinking of defoliating my Blue Cheese. I supercropped it about a week ago and the growth is powering. I want to do some defoliation but I am unsure if it is necessary, or if it is too soon after supercropping.

Defoliation, my friend, is needed to prevent high humidity and let other plants be enlightened. Otherwise it is just harming in vain.

Defoliate?Should I defoliate? As you can see in the pics, only the very top two nodes are growing fans, but it is getting crowded up on the canopy. The growth in the middle is from bottom branches that didn't stretch all the way up to the canopy, might use those for edible extraction.Week 12

Defoliate more?Should I defoliate more? side branching is intense and I'm not sure if it will result in larf or actual nug. Trimmed a lot of the weak looking side braching that was not exposed to light. Still looks rather bushy for my liking but I don't want to stunt them or reduce yields.Week 7

Harvest questions.Hello, I wanted to know if these look like they are ready for harvest or should I wait. The say it's ready when the pistels are milky white and amber but some of them aren't fully developed. Do I wait till those develop or when the majority are mature? Thanks in advance! 8wks oldBuds.

Tops spacingMy plant is really tight for space between tops. I'm trying not to disturb her anymore. I really don't want to cut anymore off but the foliage is getting insane. My question is do my tops have enough space or do I need to find a way to spread out more, and should I defoliate?Week 7

Defoliation in flowerI did a defoliation before flip to flower, but im at the end of week 2 and did an aggressive lollipop over the past 3 days because I wasnt seeing good growth below the very top of the plants, and im wondering if this is too much stress going into week 3 flower
Thanks!Week 7

Excessive nodes and autoflowersMy plants have SO SO many nodes. In my opinion they have way way too many branches. Is there anything at all I could do as far as cutting/pinching, some of them off? They’re autoflowers and I’ve only really found people saying don’t do it.Week 5
