Should I cut all leaves in flowering stage?

I'm indoor and when I start flowering I shop all the leaves off my plant.
Does this give all nuts and light to bud?
If so is it bad or no? Bout to move new kids into flower want to know if I should do the same.

no, dont do that you'll bloody kill it!! its fine to remove some to alow lightto the lower areas and sum guys do ;lollypopping' as its known to remove a lot of leaves but you MUST leave enuff on for the plant to photosyntheses, your basicall pulling its lungs and energy source off. look for a lollypopping thread for more info.

Where did you get THAT idea? Hell no, the leaves manufacture the food (photosynthesis) necessary for the plant to produce bud! No leaves = smaller buds (or no buds) Stop listening to idiots friends who know nothing about growing pot!!!

Lolli-popping has nothing to do with removing leaves. To lollipop a plant you remove all the side growth (Branches, not fan leaves) and leave just the main Cola. It's how I grow.

Don't trim your leaves off. If a particular leaf is more than 50% yellow you can then remove it but not before this point. Leaves are what supply your buds with energy and are also used to store nutrients - for instance the yellowing you see late in flower is the nitrogen leaving the old leaves and moving into the newer leaves and buds, without the leaves you would lose this store of nitrogen.

ive mates that trim heavily but i'm not in favour of it, fine to strip a bit back but in general unless its causing real light issues i'd never reccomend it, btw the friends that do it usually yeild around 1/3 less than me.

Never listen to a guy who hasn't grown before, but he heard from a guy who's daddy knew a guy who heard that you're suposed to remove leaves, or any number of silly assed folk-lore.

lol, i know that shit. one guy in here would only harvest during a full moon coz he reckoned the gravitational pull would draw more bud. fuck, ya gotta love them.

I hear that if you feed your plants cobra blood they turn bright bright red and will make you hallucinate about flying yellow bunny rabbits.

No idea about pot but a lot of farmers actually harvest based on lunar cycles. Grapes for wine making for example - you want to harvest when there is no moon (new moon) as you want more concentrated grapes and a full moon actually pulls more juice into the grape (a bad thing). Crazy sounding but its true.

Look into biodynamic farming - some trippy bullshit but also quite a bit of stuff that makes a ton of sense.

i dont discount anything but this fuckin nugget was ranting on about, sum sorta hippy shit and just wouldnt listen to any1 els...so i just ripped the shit outta him till he went away.
