And to the ppl who have no input or just wanna be smart shut the fck up .....u wanna see full defoliate bud grow that produce look em up on utube ppl do it and it does work it's a matter of opinion ... Stressing. Plant during flower can increase and speed up bud growth plant flips out and produces more trichinosis to defend its self it's a matter of opinion
You deserve that good hand shake that says i got you anything you need let me know hug. Real person for that.:peace:images.jpeg

This i fully agree with, the key to having a large harvest is your preparation and planning in veg. You need to do all the work in veg, removing the lower popcorn buds is something i also suggest.
Yea that was part of my dilemma. I forgot that if go with Def. to prepare in veg. But i also saw how in flower the grower was defoliating as well so thats where i became stuck with temptation and unsure and decided to let you guys judge me. Thanks.

My last grow I did some defloration around 5 weeks into flower. I feel I may have reduced weight In the end possibly.
Yea the only way ill do it is when i do like a 5-6 plant grow just to be able to give insight when i see someone inqiring you know what i mean. Instead of being somebody telling another person O you shouldnt do that because its not proper botanical living. when theyve never even tried it so your insight is very credible my friend.:peace:

Oy, Yeah, you didn't think I would miss a good ole defoil thread did ya?
Yea Chuck, i know there is probably a few but i didnt see anything wrong with a new thread with new opinionation. Thus i dont like going on threads with a bunch of confusion. This is my grow and i couldnt come to a conclusion as to what was the best choice so i honored the community with respect to the right guidence an influences.

Well, you knew this being a touchy subject around here, that it wouldn't be all sweet and simple, right?

Don't take anything off during flower, this causes stress which in turn hermies a plant or worst case kill your plant. And even in the last couple of weeks it is not wise to cause your plants any stress because they can still go Hermie and all effortwill go into making seeds rather than THC production. But you can bend leafs around and tuck them in so more light gets to the buds... And the reason some people take the piss is because it is considered a golden rule. And something you will learn very fast when reading and learning how to grow weed. But there is many times where some people do not research. And some consider it to be a insult/idiotic that someone even asked in the first place. Usually it is whose to search your question before asking. There is a lot of infomnation out there. So just have a long read up. And if you already have, then polish your skills..... And for everyone else we are here to help and guide people in the right direction, not terrorise them, or how will what we do be passed on, all most people need is a push in the right direction.. We all male mistakes. And mostly all of us it will involve not enough research...

Yea but with me God made man and gave the plants to us to with what we pleade to do with them. In my case it was simply for traing techniques not trying to be some greedy weed dealer or stoner. I take pictures of my girls and crop them. Im a true new grower. And people shouldnt be getting all uptight because a man wants to kniw hiw to train his plants. But yea i knew it was a touchy subject and thing is not for plant abuse. But to learn how to increase yeild thats what im for.:peace:

want to increase yield, forget about all these BS techniques and learn basic botany, learn how a plant works. Put effort into your room,lighting,c02 maybe. these are the things that increase yield, not stripping it of it's food pantry.

One thing i do is research before i go to the community. I read up on it and saw pictures and trophies about defoliation and the growers gave good advise about it. I never ask a question before i do research. Im almost 40 years old so when a man go deficating out of his mouth getting all upset irritates my intellect. But thanks for the word because its good word. Another thing is when you see a challenge it makes you want to be one who says yea i did that and i can teach you. You know what i mean. But to be mean to the grower who wants to maybe take a different road of technique is an insult to a real thorough bro. Because in the real world some would get there teeth knocked out of lips. But the word was good even yours gives me comfirmation that i will not be defoliating any plant of mine.:peace:
