Defoliation Or Not
MiniBoxGrowerstarted grow question 4 years ago
Should I remove the two large leaves so that the rest gets more light? Have read that Kush tolerates it.

What I usually do at this early stage is . Leave those big leaves for now . Tie the top node and fann leaves all together in a loose bunch using a tie. This will allow light to the lower nodes without removing leaves . Only do this for around 6 hours a day and then take the tie off the top . Untill the lower nodes finally catch up. I hope this makes sense. If not check my diary I have a picture of this technique. WEEK 4 pic 5. On my gorilla cookies diary. And you will see what I mean . 👍🌱

By the looks of it, you'd be losing almost a third of your plants productive capacity.

Witam. Mam pytanie. Czy roślinka rozwija się prawidłowo? Ma 30 Dni. Czy jest sens by Pozbawić trochę liści wiatrakowych i tych zasłaniających dolne wzrosty? Dwie środkowe maja mały odstęp między węzłami.

Extra branchesI dug up the seedling cause I thought it was a dud. I put it back in the ground and it sprouted weird shaped first sets of leaves. Now I have random branches growing between nodes 1 and 2. I don't want these branches....can I clip them?

Possible rookie defoliating issueMid flower, defoliate, bad idea? Brought in more light and air circulation, but I’m thinking I might have stressed her out. Hopefully she will respond positively, what are your thoughts friends? If I messed up I hope it helps someone not make the same mistake by defoliating late

Panowie i Panie jak myślicie przyciąć delikatnie liście by odsłonić dolna partie wzrostu? Dzień 36. Jak narazie nie widać żadnych deficytów ani przenawożenia. Może podpowiecie mi co zrobić też by zmaksymalizować plon. Bardzo będę wdzięczny za każdą odpowiedź.

Pruning????Hello everyone.
I am growing for the second time and this time I am growing 10 gorilla cookies Auto
It is the 7th week.
They appear generally healthy, but is it too early to try lollipoping?
Also, if I do lollipoping, will any other pruning be necessary?

Coteleidoni toltiCiao amici , in cicli scorsi ho sempre levato i coteleidoni ma non vorrei che questa cosa che io faccio danneggi le piante anche se in giro per il web e per le esperienze di altri grower mi dicono che invece levando le due foglioline lo stelo riesce ad irrobustirsi meglio.Pareri?

Scrog Defoliation during flowering - how hard to go?I'm going into 4th week of flower, and I'm fairly sure they're done stretching now, and have filled the screen nicely.
How much should I be defoliating at this point? Should I take just leaves, or also small budsites under the canopy?

Should I defoliate? Autoflower week 7 (3/4 week of flowering)Should I defoliate? I’ve just plucked a few leaves here and there that were yellowing or exhibiting other problems, but I haven’t done a proper defoliation. Would defoliating still this stage help? Autoflower week 7 (3-4 weeks flowering).

Should I remove these leaves? Only the ones with the worst signs of the Deficiency?Basically I’m going throw a calcium deficiency in week 7 of flower, feel like I’ve already fixed the issue by flushing with pH balanced water and reading the right nutes to the medium. Overall should I trim these fan leaves with deficiencies? And does my plant look good?
