21 days flowering defoliation?
Babylongrower42started grow question 4 years ago
Olá meus queridos colegas de growing!
21 days of flowering question:
- Do I need to defoliate it?
- How many and where?
- Just the top leaves that make shadow on low branches?
- Just the low leaves? (I'll do a lollipop as well)

No. Please do not defoliate especially when you have such a nice canopy. That is one great scrog job there my friend. Cannabis plants have evolved over thousands of years to grow their biggest and best buds in order to attract male pollen and reproduce if she would benefit by having her leaves stripped she would of evolved to strip them herself every health leaf you remove is taking away a surface area of energy your plant could be using to bulk up your buds even more. Best advice ? Tuck the leaves out the way bend them back move them but only at worst case do you chop them I only ever chop a leaf if there is no other option and its blocking bud sites thats the only justified reason i can think of.

Evening canopies/Defoliation tips1 of my 4 plants is roughly 4” taller than the other 3. How can I even out their canopies so all 4 are the same? Trying to use the SOG method in 2x2x5 tent.
Also how much defoliation should I be doing using the SOG method? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Defoliation before harvestingHello, I hope some more experience grower would be able to give me a good advice. I’m in week 9 and planning to harvest at the end of week 11. Do you think that defoliating my girls would be a good idea? Should I take all big fan leaves? 🤔

Pre-flower defoiliationI flipped my lights to 12/12 about 4 days ago and I don't believe I done a well enough job on defoiliating.
The plants are healthy but the canopy looks a little crowded.
Can I defoiliate now or should I wait until the pre flower stretch is finish
