Organic Grow: Swiss Cheese-Extreme Defoliation Vs Light Defoliation

[PaganRich]

Compost tea with organic nutes fed today, gotta say that I think the light defol has it so far and although defol can slightly slow growth time wise if done regularly, it usually is reflected in more robust growth...however it is pretty level here still but still aways to go Pic`s 1-3-light defol girl, pic`s 4-5-heavily defol girl though nothing removed today

First pic is lightly defoliated girl, second is the one heavily defoliated...neither trimmed just feed

Light defoliated girl pic 1, heavily defoliated pic 2...not a lot in it though buds look slightly better on heavily defol-ed girl

First 3 pics show the lass who has undergone light defol training. Now that they are coming up to week 7 of flowering both girls will be left alone. Pics 4-6 show heavily defoliated lass....still neck and neck between both girls so far

This is the last entry for this blog and a surprising outcome: The plant that had light defoliation yielded 65grams wet whereas the lass that was very heavily defoliated yielded 56 grams wet at harvest. A bit of a surprise there...hope you enjoyed this experiment....Pics 1-7 are of the lass who had been lightly defoliated, Pic 8 is of a grand piece of Nordic advice and the remaining pics are of the lass that was heavily defoliated during the grow....take care all
