Heres the taller plants. I tied 3 down and placed the other two in the spaces between the tied ones.

I just tied the colas to the opposite side of the tent.

Holy shit! Where did your fan leaves go? U r definitely tryin defoliation.
Good luck!
I personally wouldn't take but a leaf or two off. That's only when they show signs of decay. I tuck the leaves that appear to block the buds. But u went way overboard IMO.

Dude they look fine in the first pic I saw you shoulda never trimmed them all off like that in my opinion. That last pic looks crazy, way too much defoliation. That's going to slow stuff down in my opinion. I would let them ride with those leaves on they would have filled out nicely, those larger fan / sugar leaves provide essential sugars to your buds. Some people might have different opinions than me on this. But leaving your leaves on works well for me. Try on at least one of your plants just so you know if it works better for you too.

Yeah man please don't cut on her no more. It's probably going to stress the hell out of it
It's his first time lol and it will be okay to be honest it's nit as bad as they say lol.
Did you pluck the little leafs under buds if so then that you shouldn't touch. But hey you never know until you try go to Holland and Barrett get you self some zamibian forest raw honey mix 1 table spoon in that 14 ltrs bucket and feed the plants for the last two weeks ir you could start from now and they will pick up some boost and crystals. It's what I do a week before then a week three weeks honey water and Pk they should go for it.

To be honest, the pics show the plants tied and didnt focus on the main colas in those pics. I should have taken pics from the other door.

The only flower type leaves I moved were ones that had stretched, man.. some were like 3 inches long just to get a leaf out there, that would, still be under a fan leaf. So took those. The foliage seems to have come along in the last week, and white hairs and flowers are much better. So I'm not too gutted.

I think I'll get an Oz per plant, that'l still be profitable. Cheers guys
