That is some plant stick, she's looking awesome mate. How's the smell?

Cheers pal, I'm really happy with her. She doesn't stink at all, nice smell up close, and when I've touched the buds she's proper sticky and got a really nice hashy smell with a bit of fruit mixed in. More of a berry smell than citrus. Can't wait till she's done, just hope she dries nice and slow. The trainwreck I did dried in 3 days, and it was too dry, no smell to it, and the cure didnt bring it back. Going to hang the plant up whole this time to slow down the process. How do you dry yours?

Just removed a carrier bag full of fan leaves to get some light to the lower bud sites, improve air flow and drop the relative humidity.

May seem a bit brutal, but it should do her good. What do you guys think?

not a big advocate of removing leaves over here

Lets see how she does, we might learn something or I might have dropped a bollock 
Before the canopy was proper thick and no light was getting underneith, light is now reaching all bud sites. I'll get some pics on of some sites and take more in a few days and do a side by side comparison see if it makes a difference!

keep in mind, though, that it's the leaves that need light not the buds

Aye, still plenty of leaves on her. Better light distribution now though!

Look really good mate she looks fine as. You must be proud. I do tend to agree with Grape I wouldn't normally take off fan leaves. I do take lower discoloured leaves off though. He's correct in saying it's the leaves that require the light mostly but I do understand why you did it. She'll be fine though. Nice pics looking forward to seeing more as she grows fully. Well done.

I normally hang mine in branches at the top of the grow room with a fan on them on the lowest setting. Normally takes about a week and then I burp them for 2 or so weeks. This method has worked for me every time without fail

I've seen many arguments for and against defoliation and I've got to say I'm all for it especially with the way I grow, I don't think it would suit every grow style. But for such a bushy plant like mine, I think its going to work well! And thanks mate.

This is what I did last time but I had the 4inch extractor/carbon air filter on aswell. So I think this dried it out too quick, just going to stick with the little fan next time and try and dry it out slow as possible.
