Defoliation

Twalker92started grow question 6y ago

On my on my lemon 1 should I defoliate any more leaves before she's goes into flower to help with light penetration and should I do anything with lemon 2? She's tied down but should I defoliate anything although she is quite small.

No you should not. A smart move would be to bend her with a wire or a rope to promote secondaries growth aka LST. Here you have 3 sets of true leaves which are all important for the photosynthesis, a defo will stunt her

Do not defoliate. Plants are way too young and removing leaves in this stage will stunt their growth extremely.

Gents/Ladies, Anyone got any ideas with what I should do with the cola that has stunted growth due to the stem being half broken? I managed to top it, just about... Was thinking if it doesn't decide to grow anymore in a weeks time, I could top the one next to it again?

Defoliate?Unsure as to whether to defoliate this around or not. Can anyone with experience say if this worked for you or not please. My goal is quality>quantity but i'm happy to achieve both if possible ;)

This stuff smells like hay. I am having the same issue as last dry, buds smell like hay, no smell coming out. What can I do? They are in closed box, 79f (can't get it lower, 44 humidity). They have been in there for 30 hours. How can I bring out the aroma?

I’m a bit unsure, re: bubblicious, do you think i should fim or top or leave them at this point? as they are pretty squat also do you think putting the full spectrum lighting on now is ok as i have done? i figured as its auto it wouldn’t make a difference, more light more growth.
