NAKEDGARDENER Jealous!!! How could you be? The box sets quite a limitation of how much I can grow...

[PaganRich]

NAKEDGARDENER I love that guy. He`s wicked. Very envious mate

[NAKEDGARDENER]

Thanks sis for giving me the link, been reading through and I’m very impressed indeed and also a little jealous of your setup. Nice grow matey. Subbed.

no shadows in there nice job I tend to get carried away with defoliating my self lol

[GlitterFarm]

Wowza! Your girls are beautiful. I'm intrigued by the hydroponics, looking forward to seeing your results. 🙏Namaste

Thanks Euroaznscotty I'm really paying a lot more attention to more things, and re-reading the defol tutorial over and over until it sinks into my thick, old stoner head. Tryna keep learning; keeping the mind active (and vaping lots of home grown bud) prevents senility...

I defoled slowly during 1st three weeks of 12/12, leaves kept coming back with a vengeance, so I kept defoling.

They have stopped growing fan leaves and I see the sugar spike leaves emerging. So I'm being more conservative about snipping. If I can tuck, I do.

[Euroaznscotty]

Looking gorgeous! Textbook defol and you should see some nice results! They've grown so much since last pics. Kudos.

[Juicyj89]

Yeah that looks good! So are you going to do any defol during flower or no?

On my previous grow, I trimmed them up too high and missed out on a larger harvest:



On this grow, I trained the branches away from the middle, and I exposed the interior space to more light.

I did strategic defoliation following the tutorial much more carefully--mainly trimming that inner space, but always conscientious to expose bud sites to light.

After I switched to 12/12, a bunch of smaller colas sprung up and made it to the light, so consequently, I'ma have more cola tops in the light.

Finally, I didn't do what I did on the previous grow, so the colas go down lower.

[Juicyj89]

Can you post a pic of the underneath of your plants? Just kind of want to see what your base and branches look like. Thanks.

Thanks Jimmy, we're having a great time together.
