Every healthy green leaf you remove will decrease your plants capacity to make energy, thereby slowing growth.
Just remember - maximum leaves = maximum energy produced = maximum growth and maximum health.
Try and only remove yellow leaves, for by the time they are yellow, they have served their purpose.
Cannabis has evolved to grow her biggest and best flowers.
Getting rid of healthy green leaves for no reason or benefit is not part of that process.
Hope this helps,.......... Organoman.

for defoliating I like to remove every fan leaf on the inside that is blocking or touching bud sites on the center of the plant then leave all the fan leaves on the exterior. Those fan leaves act as banks of nutrients as the plant reaches the end of the life cycle so make sure to leave enough on there so when you flush you get a perfect flush

If you're wanting to defoliate the plant, then yes, if you're not going that route then np, my suggestion would be to remove the leaves that are blocking lower bud sites from getting light.

Since my light has the 3 options for Veg, Bloom or Full spectrum which would be best? Also if my room temp never climbs above 30 do I need to have fans in my grow space if I leave the door open for ten minutes every morning in the room with a small fan to let the air exchange?Week 1

Hello guys, I worry, not about the health of my plant, but the fact that it is a week late with the others. What do you think is the best? extend the growth of others by one week and let them catch up before 12/12 or stay on the schedule of others and prosper despite the delay.Week 3

Anybody able to tell me how much longer I should leave my tangerine dream for? I’ve looked at other diaries and a few have been harvested while pistils are still mostly white. I usually harvest when they’re mostly orange/brown but I think this is my first Sativa dominant strainWeek 13

Cheers guys I put them into flower soon after your advice. From research this strain doesn't normally stretch much normally around meter tall so I'm hoping I should be happily within my limits. Should i feed full strength half strength just water cycle?? Thanks for adviceWeek 7
