To whoever reads this post; Good morning, and thank you for taking your time to share your advice. I greatly appreciate it. For starters, this plant here is an Aurora Indica(feminized) seed-to-harvest grow. Currently operating in a 4-6 closet space under a 600watt(276eq) Viparspectra LED...

Hello friends, I have begun a new adventure. My first adventure with this sort of act is detailed below. This is the first time I've grown physically, but I've been researching this process for 5 years now. I am growing 11 plants. I have a 5x9 Gorilla Grow tent and 3x BlackDog LED 400 watts...

I know there is a massive debate regarding defoliation. And arguments stack up in my opinion on both sides. Outdoor I wouldn't want to. But today I bit the bullet for the 3 larger ladies in my tent. Personal reasoning was poor light penetration through the canopy and decreased airflow. Guess we...

Hi guys were in week 6 of flower under 2 x 600w hps and 1 x 600w mh. Ive defoliated throughout veg and flower they have also been topped. There are some good sized colas and they are covered in resin!! Enjoy :)

Week 5 Flower - 5 x Incredible Bulk HI Guys So this garden is in a tent 1.2 x 2.4 x 2.0m, I using 20L pots with coco+ as the medium. For light I have 3 x 600 w on digital switchable ballasts so they can hit 630w each with boost or go as low as 400w for veg. I used 1x 600w MH bulb for veg as...

Hows it looking week2-3 flowering was really bush read up on defolitation and apparently but trim leafs down to get light to bud will increase yield never tryed it before but from the results ive seen it works on some strains better than others... Just a test for myself what do you think?

They love it... don't be afraid to pull fan leaves. Especially ones blocking light from lower buds.

Removing fan leaves... I'm sure we could go on and on about this subject.. just wanted more feedback from those whom have actually tried this method. My personal take on it is I believe it's beneficial at the right stage of flowering... however. It is also strain specific... You obviously don't...

I took 6 clones from a bushy mother and they have more leaves than any clones I've taken before. My question is would more leaves to keep alive while it grows roots be a problem? Should I remove some?

Ok, so I guess you could call it accidental defoliation anyways, a couple fan leaves and(bud sites got knocked off of one side of this plant in the first week or so of veg and anyway it's been growing with one side normal one side half gone, anyways I can say I've noted the side with less leaves...
