Defoliation during early flowering

MuMu_the_Growerstarted grow question 2 years ago

I wonder whether trimming the lower (big) leaves would be beneficial? Because they’re all shaded now but maybe they participate in the transpiration process at night?

If they aren't covering any potential bud nodes, I'd leave them. Only reasons to defoliate is to increase light to bud nodes and airflow around the center of the plant. I hope this helps.

Defoliation soon after Supercropping I am thinking of defoliating my Blue Cheese. I supercropped it about a week ago and the growth is powering. I want to do some defoliation but I am unsure if it is necessary, or if it is too soon after supercropping.

Defoliate or not yet?The breeder (AutoSeeds) says they work better if you don't LST to much and focus on the main cola. Should I select a few of the large leaves and defoliate them to get more light in the middle. Just don't want to pick the wrong ones. Hope I have enough images to help you help me.
