AlpenZilla

@AlpenZilla, nice!! I'll be sure to try that out!

@Aeromatics, Yeah, that’s pretty much how I handle it too. I’ll only take off the really big fan leaves if they’re shading important sites. Other than that, I totally agree: less defoliation seems to keep the plants happier overall. The one thing I always make sure to do, though, is a proper lollipop at the end of week 2 / start of week 3 of flower... everything down low goes at that point. :ok_hand::seedling:

@AlpenZilla, I've been leaving them up on my most recent auto and I 100% see the difference! I pulled one or two of the very bottom ones today but they were really buried under the canopy. Looking great this week on your end!
