Removing leaves (LST)?
SmokeyBear420started grow question 5y ago
I am now 3 weeks in to vegetation. At what point can I start removing the leaves that are 1)not getting a lot of light because of the internodes above, and 2) blocking light to internodes under them?

Would be better to leave sun leaves to build as much photosynthesis as possible. Just tuck all the fan leaves under the branches that shooting out from the nodes. You will have to do it twice a day but once the branches get taller than the leaves you won't have you. Good growing

Lots of philosophy on this. I’m not a huge fan of removing fan leaves until 2 weeks prior to flip— but I’m also not a fan of LST either—- I only remove the 2 lowers and two upper fans at this stage—- they are your solar panels. All growth comes from them—- hence why I don’t really remove until later.

LSTGood day!
I have a question for experienced growers who've used LST.
The stem usually branches out to 2 branches, one of which is just one big leaf and the other branch has nodes & other branches.

Advice?Done with LST. I added a little overdrive.. just so anxious. My plants seem in line with pics from other Growers diaries. Any advice appreciated. Sometimes I’m afraid I overdo it with early topping and I did a lot of lst on these. I’m new at this. Thanks for reading! 🌱
