Should I Defoliate auto flower bushy cannabis
Luciditeanswered grow question 7y ago
I would. Start removing a few really big leaves. Go slow. Once you are comfortable, remove a bit more. You are looking to open up the foliage a bit and allow new, more complex growth to dominate. Then you can do a fee big defoliations if you think it is working. There is a lit if discussion on the right times and how much. I don’t know. My last grow really responded well to this approach.

I am using a crude yeast and sugar water mix for CO2 production. My space is 80cm x 3m x 2.3m. Does anyone have any experience of whether this is doing anything? I have the fan on constantly so the air is being recycled. Just wondering if what I am doing is worth it?Week 7

What leaves are ok to remove?Hi! Is it fine to remove the upper fan leaves on this plant as well or should I wait thill the side branches get bigger leaves? I removed the lowers leaves after LST so nothing touches the soil, but some of them are blocking a bit light for the new growth. Thanks!

Defoliation/pruning guidesIs defoliation/pruning the same? And do you guys have some really good guides on how to do this? Maybe either a video or with pictures - I’m very visual. I have been looking myself, but wanted to ask here too from experienced growers. Wanna look into doing it for my next grow.Techniques. Defoliation

Autoflower defoliation questionIs it safe to pluck dying leaves on autoflowers this close harvest? It’s ztrawberriez by fast buds. It’s a little after week 8. Based on my naked eye and looking at hairs I’d say about 3 weeks to go and 1 more feeding.

I'm thinking about topping my Dr. Grinspoon in order to keep her in a short height from 60cm. But im worrying about the time she needs to recover from topping, which is important time for her very long flowering period. What would you recommend? Topping or any tips on better LST?Week 4

Breeder says harvest at 70days,latest pics up are day 64 - sure she won’t be ready in a week.thinking of only starting flushing in a week then harvesting two weeks after that depending on trichomes which are clear at the moment. Why do you all think?Week 10

question or two in one. When should I start pruning and when should I top? I have been seeing topping should be at 3rd node? Anyone tried that? And how about trimming the leaves up? Should I snip the first set, the two single true leaves? Wait a while longer?Week 3
