Yes a long as you’re not stripping her down. If the stems are still flexible enough you could consider LST.
But be aware that some plants could not react positively to the stress and it could delay the harvest

Hi everybody!
I was wondering if anybody has some experience with a light on/light off schedule? 2h light, half hour dark.
For a lightcycle of 12h total.
My lamps tend to get pretty hot, seeing how they are built in a closet I don't want them to get too hot.. Advice wanted! :DWeek 1

moment de la défoliation ?Sur la photo en jaune vous pouvez voir à quoi ressemble mes plantes. Elles en sont au 20ème jour de floraison, Pensez vous que leur faire une défoliation serait bénéfique ?

How do I drop my RH down when nothing works? Check Diary. Will defoliation be a good idea? Open tent door and leave it open?My 2x2 is starting to crowd. This is driving the RH to over 70%. Should I defoliate to help with crowding and RH? Or should I just leave it alone? RH in lung room is 48% Exhaust fan, high or low with a dehumidifier, doesn't work. What should I do? Defoliate? Thanks! Check diary.2y ago

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

I'm in 3rd week of flowering and 10th week overall. My humidity had been steady around 50-60% during veg, but noticed the first weeks of flowering humidity has DROPPED, usually about 40% - sometimes as low as 35%. Is this normal? I have read humidity normally RISES during flower.Week 10

Defoliate a flowering auto?Hello! I am contemplating defoliation for my GSC auto which is just starting its 3rd week of flower. My concern is that the humidity may be too high, and there may be too little air flow due to the plant's healthy size. What are yall's opinions on this? Too stressful?
Thanks!Week 7

LST or defoliation on autosI think I will need to defoliate a bit those bushy ladies, but I am not so confident about that because, from what I've read and since it's my first time growing autos, defoliation or lst is not advisable because it may stress them a looooot or am I wrong?5y ago
