End of veg final prune - which leaves to trim?
thebiologiststarted grow question 5y ago
Please advise me on final pruning before flower. In the picture you can see some big fan leaves without budsites and many younger leaves which appear to be with budsites. I want to know what to trim and what to keep

Should I defoliate the canopy a bit? The canopy is super dense and Iām sure there are some bud sites that are missing out on light, Iām also concerned about airflow to the buds. Is there a risk in defoliating at this stage in the grow, should I just let her do her thing?Week 15

So I messed up my timer and plants went back to veg . I'm on week 9 of flower and they look like they have a ways to go. Since revegging do I start my weeks over again? Or just watch them and listen? Will this event degrade the potency of the bud?Week 16
