Is trimming good thing to do ?
or is it better to leave alone and let it grow ?
and who's trim and how much ?

and also what kind trim tricks or styles people use ?

ps. i know about trimming and different styles.. but new people and some growers dosent know much so this is a thread about all kind trim tricks and styles.

( my trimming record is 10 tops ( heads ) plant, it was a 20 inch wide and 20 inch tall and so bushy u cant see the light trought )

Im hands off style, I dont pick off fan leaves until they have become decrepit from being absorbed at the end of flowering. Occasionally I will tuck a large fan leaf behind a bud but I never cut off healthy leaves.

I was told trim under branch in weeks 3 and 5. And to trim anything that is in the way of the sites getting direct light

LST everything....leaves may be abused in nature but i dont think they all get trimmed at once...thats not normal...or maybe im overthinking it

well what yu guys think trim other leaves than fan leaves ??
and i have seen if yu trim too much fan leaves, then the result of harvest is smaller, but some few fan leaves if they block the light some good spots were yu want light to go, thats is okay.. but not too much only lower branches...

but i have done one super trim at last time, i just like training and studying with plants..

so when one of my plant was veg in 4 to 5 weeks i dont realy remember maybe 6 weeks, i trimmed almost every fuckin leaves

lol.. i only left 3-5 tiny tiny leaves and the head fan leaves.. then i waited.. and waited to recover...

and WOW!!!! i have never ever seen, nowere thaht bushy and thict plant i even almost seen the light comin trought.. or i couldn't see it trought and i got 10 tops!! it was like a balloon... round like earth

it grows 20ich wide and 20 inch tall

so that i learn if yu trim too much yu can still recovered that and let heal... i veg that plant 2.5month before flowered...

but ill' say if yu have time.. go for it and try some trim tech's but if not and yu are low on weed, try another time.. but test different trim styles just one plant.. rest of plants can stay like they are...

so lets continue to trim dis and ques and talk... whos trim whos not ?? and how u trim ( like girls talkin shaving

lol!!! ) those are the girls

LOL!!

Definatly trim the fan leaves so that your bud sites get direct light. Will make your buds more dense in the end my brother.

but if yu trimm all our fan leaves it lower your corp and harvest...
because the plant get's power with those fan leaves.. i have seen if some one trim too much fan leaves then the end product and bud's size are small to compared not trim't too much plant...

Whatever you také off promotes growth elsewhere.

I trim out all inner branches and fans that aren't getting light and fans that block light from budding sites. Never trim off more than 25% of the plant of you'll stunt the growth. I'll fetch a pic of my stalking technique.
