LST trim??

TheProfessorGrowsstarted grow question 3y ago

Things are getting a bit cramped with my LST. Some fan leaves are buried under others or are on the ground. Should I trim some lower fan leaves to give it room to breathe? Or should I let it rock as long as they are not blocking any light?

Yea, go ahead and do some defoliation so the plant can breathe, it won't hurt it at all, just don't take too much off.

Should I defoliate?Hello everyone my plant has grown VERY bushy and the fan leaves are crowding together and turning each other upside down. (See second pic) So I was wondering if I should just take off the fan leaves from the secondary shoots.

Excessive leaf growth during flowering I am growing two autos (Orange Punch and Lemon Kix, both by Dutch Passion) side by side under a single 2000W Phlizon LED. Both are in week 8. The LK looks fantastic. The OP is starting to develop a lot of leaves now. This happened to my previous Orange Bud Auto as well. Why?

Reflecting on 1st grow: when should I have started pinching the side growth? There are lots of small buds on thin branches that are not going to develop as much. I thought that leaves help plants grow, so probably I kept too many of them. What the basic wisdom on pruning?

When to start defoliating Defoliating plants? When do you guys generally start stripping back leaves? And are they worth keeping at vegging stage? Just for context, very light LST, so no lollipoping etc. Cheers

So, what do you think about the twisted and curled leaves? Tobacco Mosaic Virus, Alfafa Mosaic Virus? I used alfafa meal in the soil mixture.... What would you guess? I don't think it is a def. because I used azomite. =)

Is it a good idea to defoliate this monster a bit? Day 54/24F I've defoliated all three plants 3 times so far and the Northern Cheese Haze and 3BOG look great but the Stilton x 3BOG bx is an absolute monster and super bushy. I am not terribly concerned about larf as I'm gonna make some ice hash but I'm sure that it would help with air flow.
