<span class="link_user">@Boncoward</span>, I'm a new one also. I defoliated to give more energy to buds. Will see what happens. I chopped up my Sweet Tooth to get a smaller bushier plant. Seemed to work. Also ST has been in a tent alone with constant CO2. Huge difference!
Had decided to try to let my soil dry out and water every Saturday, Wednesday. Tricks did not like that! Went limp and flipped a leaf upside down. Bounced back on day 23. Babes finally moved into the Big tent with AC INFINITY SETUP.
