Defoliation
OutForRealanswered grow question 5 years ago
Yes do it , the reason is simple , like you said they will not be productive. To cut them will redirect the energy to the tops and so you’ll get a better yield as the plant will only focus on the most productive parts.
Moreover you are on week 2 of flowering when the plant is starting to focus on the bud production, it’s a good window to do it

Too much trimming up top?I read defoliating throughout week 3 of flower is around the last time you should trim. I cleaned up the bottom real well, but Do you think I trimmed too many fan leaves up top? A lot my bud sites have one fan leaves and the nodes under it have none at all?

Should I cut off leaves or not?Hi everybody, I’m new here!
I have a question: my “daiquiri lime auto” plant is now more or less at the third week of flowering phase, I thought that maybe some of the leaves down near the groung or the “useless” ones could be cutted off.
What do you think? Thank u very much.

Late Defoliating or No?Ok, so I didn't do much defoliating or pruning ever, I'm on week 11, day 25 of a 49-63 day flower cycle. Should I do any type of defoliating now or just let it go to the end? What about just the big leaves or middle leaves? I think just let it go now, right? Thanks all

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 early for defoliation/topping?Im a beginner on 2nd grow however i have 4 plants. I want to try different things. On 2 of my GSC I've started LST. On the other GSC do you think i can get rid of the the big fan leaves at this stage or is it too early?
On the Jack Herrer, (3) is it too small for topping?
