more defo?

Just remember............ Less leaves = less energy being made = less potential growth. All of the plants energy it needs to grow her flowers is made in/by the leaves. Unless you are having massive problems controlling extremely high humidity, there is no real reason to defoliate.

If your struggling with really high Rh and it's causing mold problems then defoliation is fine. If conditions are fine leave as much leaf matter on as possible.

Hello Gerbst, There are only 2 reasons for defoliation. The first one is when leaves are blocking airflow. When they are stacked on eachother then there will be moist in between. You want to prevent this because it can cause mold and other issues. The second reason is when a large leaf blocks the light for a huge part of the plant below. Next the those 2 reasons defoliation will only decrease yield. So take a good look at your plants inside your grow room and ask yoursel these questions. Is there enough airflow in between the leaves? Does a leaf block the light for a huge part of the plant? Of yes you need to solve this by defoliation. If no then happy growing! 💚

If you want to reduce co2 intake and photosnythesis, sure.. i.e. no, don't do that. Read "to defolialte or no..." on cocoforcannabis.com to rid yourself of any urban myths related to defoliation. the producets of photosynthesis are ever present throughout the phloem. Distribution is based upon apical dominance and not where the light hits the plant. ATP et al is highly mobile.

Your plants look great! The defoliation you did seems fine. It doesn't look like any big fan leaves are blocking important areas. Keep an eye on them, but I think you're good to go.

you only really should be removing leaves that are actively blocking the lights or direct airflow over defoliating reduces the plants natural energy recources

Hey mate, no let the plant rest, looks good. Single leaves you can take off later if the start do shadow something, no worries.👍
