Should I defoliate more or not

[THCbreeder]

Cutting it in a different spot will still make the plant focus on healing the end of that stock no matter where it gets cut, she will know. you can do lst without needing to prune and get sunlight to all bud sites.

This is my Space dawg, shes 7 foot touching the light 1st week in flower, never pruned. I do believe we have a huge difference.

Just out of curiosity is your space dawg from seed or clone ? Secondly to the Op, defoliate . Little by little from the top down will not hurt anything. You will find some are completely against it some are for it . This issue is for you to learn and form your own opinion . You take clones ? Run a side by side test for every strain you do and see whether or not it either reacts well to it or dislikes it . Just like every other variable us growers deals with throughout the endless learning curve . No right or wrong way just try . Selective pruning is best in my opinion .

How do yu figure a plant doesnt like defoliation? Ive never had a plant straight up die from it. Worst case ive seen is.. maybe slowed/stunted growth? I've never come across a strain i cudnt bend, twist, and cut to my liking. Never had a plant hermie either. Its jus a weed, AND a female. Slap that bitch around and she'll put out

...slap her to hard and she'll bust nuts thou. And not the good kind >.>

contradicted myself.
Slap her to hard and she MAY bust nuts. As i said, havent had it happen. I shud experiment to see how much they can take.
