High, No you defoliated enough! As long as the leaves do not stack on eachother and leave a good airflow through the plant. And leaves are not blocking the rest from the plant below it there is no reason for further defoliation! Yours look great! Happy Growing! 😋

Please click on the grower's name that is answering your question to see their profile. There are fake accounts being created to look EXACTLY like real accounts - but they're easily identified by doing this... at this point, only myself and m0use are affected.

I would have stripped the majority of branches and any growth beyond end branch buds a while ago. You can't ask a question generally with so many answers/styles/methods available, we can't say what your plan is, bit it looks nicer than that idiot GrowingGrannie can manage to grow, so take advice under caution here OK. Good luck

A lot depends on the humidity in your area... I'm dealing with terrible humidity - 89% this morning! If it's not that bad (and god help you if it is!) I don't think you need to defoliate a lot but perhaps some more on the two OG Kush... they look a bit dense to me and it would help get more light inside and down low as well as to the lower regions of the Fruity OG Kush... the Fruity OG Kush looks just fine, I'd leave it alone! Nice looking grow! Good luck!

Late Defoliating or No?Ok, so I didn't do much defoliating or pruning ever, I'm on week 11, day 25 of a 49-63 day flower cycle. Should I do any type of defoliating now or just let it go to the end? What about just the big leaves or middle leaves? I think just let it go now, right? Thanks all

Im planning on my final defoliation to be on Day 21 flower. Should I remove every fan leaf/any leaf not directly attached to the bud or is that too much? How do some of you go about your final defoliation?

How do you guys check your trichomes? What % of amber do you have? Do check for milky/amber on the leaves or the bud itself? I have a microscope but it’s very hard to use unless I trim a little piece of bud or leaf off and inspect it on a table with my microscope.
