Would you start to slowly defoliate?

Bonkheadsstarted grow question 3y ago

Hello fellow growers! Would you start to slowly defoliate these girls? They are Gorilla Zkittlez Autos. What are your opinions about defoliating outdoor autos? Would it make any difference, or it wouldnt because the sun will reach all the budsites equally?

Just leave it be. They look great. Sun doesn’t need to reach budsites necessarily. It needs to hit as much leaves as possible

I just realized this freebie seed is feminized and not autoflower like the ones I purchased. I didnt use any growing methods to not stress out the plant. My question is should I start to low stress training or topping? Im going to 12/12 light cycle tonight.

Hi fellow growers! Light question. Using a 600w LED with veg and flower switches. I’ve been using both spectrums since starting flower as I figured 600w full spectrum is better than 300w just flower? Is this okay? I’d prefer to use as much wattage as possible to maximise yields.

Any suggestions?These two are recovering from a Broken PH Pen, and stunted by too much recharge(mislabeled for hydro). We've fixed the issues and are back on track, we've finally started to see some stretch again! My question is - should I defoliate more, to encourage branching? Or just wait?

Too much foliage? Not too sure.Should I thin this out? The canopy is about 8" deep, so 4 layers of foliage. It looks like it's still a bit much. Should I wait for the stretch to finish up and then defoliate properly? Am I being overly analytical Just need to double check with the professionals. Thanks!

In a weeks time(when my stretch is over)I will defoliate a few fan leaves covering colas. So... how much should I cut, fan leaves higher or lower on the stem and what effect will this have on growth and yield? does time of day or time in the watering cycle of the cutting matter?
