Defoliation and Nutrients

That's having fun around here! Get used to it or you may not like it here!

Trolling would be me calling you names and saying things like you don't know what your doing, insulting your mother and sister and generally attacking your lack of skills......over and over and over - after this, I don't intend to reply ,,, unless

Or do you prefer I just say "Your Welcome"?
it was that middle finger emoji that seemed trollish hey I'm a down to earth guy love a bit banter I can take it on the chin I'm not offended :cool:

i see the bushy 1 on the left the buds do seem more full and that had never been defoliated or pruned? and btw I haven't actually cut any branches only Leaves
just to add was this the same strain/clones from same plant or both from seed?
It was the same strain from seed, I cut off all the fan leaves on the one on the right, none cut off on the left plant. Is not the first time I've done it and have used clones, it's always the same, the uncut plant always yields more

well thanks for the advice just over 2 weeks till harvest white hairs starting to change colour they've put some weight on already of what I've read is true about the last 2 weeks of flower the buds swell I'll be really happy with my results for my first time

So then technically for debate it wasn't a exact pheno (clone from same mother) test so maybe the one on the left was a higher yielder just saying science is science I respect what you provide to the community I just always love a debate. A lot of your methods you talk about I copy so don't take my debate as insult please

Doesn't matter, I totally invite any and all to do their own side by as that was not my first one and the results are the same, the one with leaves will always win. Tis a botany thing

I would only be obvious ripping off all the parts that supply the plant with energy to grow would stunt it.

It would be like ripping out the gas tank of a car and thinking you are going to go farther.

Im not a fan of de-fanning or defoliation or whatever you want to call it. I get the idea of light trimming, training and topping, Its done on other plants.

Where did the theory come from?.. I cut back roses and trim hedges etc on a weekly bases and some of the things cannabis growers do are just downright strange. The internet is a godsend for growers (wish it was around when i first started growing) but disinformation seems to spread faster than syphilis at high school.
