Should i trim my fan leaf tips during early flower?

Has it occurred to you that asking experienced growers for advice is, in fact, a form of research? Besides, there's a ton of conflicting information out there about growing cannabis, and especially about defoliation. Having an actual conversation about a topic can be quite enlightening.

I have in fact realized that asking experienced growers is research. I have also noticed that if you do no research on your own and come asking for help you are lazy. Just my opinion.

Leave the fan leaves alone.....sheesh.....as the plant ages it will let them drop on it's own......plus the leaves help feed the plant in question and also the bud sites if any are there.......

So you’ve maximised your current growing methods and can’t get any higher consistent numbers after changing environmental variables such as Co2, Temp diff changes, nutrient requirement changes?

Or you just want to fuck about with defol techniques To see what happens?

I want to fuck around and do experiments. there is always something new to discover in science and medicine, but some people don't want to go beyond and come up with new ideas and innovation.

How do you know he hasn't done any research? It's quite an assumption. Either way, chiding someone to "do their research" when they are, in fact, doing their research really doesn't accomplish much, you know?

I agree! Although…. You should consider doing it where it hasn’t been done. The leaf tip thing has been ran through a lot. It doesn’t help buy cutting tips. Just facts.

innovation isn't a thing for some people, and once something works for them they keep it that way instead of going beyond.

the only time u cut the tips is when ur taking clones

Oh I’m sorry I didn’t realize you were the moderator in this thread. I’ll try to keep my opinion to myself and let you give him some sage advice.

You prolly just exploded his brain. You should have explained why? ( because it reduces the amount of matter it is throng to keep alive)

Not mad bro. Just very blunt. Not trying to be a dick. I know… my wife says it too… I tend to come across that way. My bad bro.

 

[Alter Jean]

this question applies to all grows and not just my current grow.

I know someone who cuts the tips of their leaves but they are a Guerilla grower with massive balls.

It helps blend in their plants with the scenery.

Detroitwill is a follower, and not an innovator. LOLOL. This is the difference between company directors and techs. Directors are innovative and techs follow the standard operating procedure.

lol Detroitwill still mad.

The comment was because everyone was saying it’s not something you do and then boom… he comes in with that. Lmao

Then why the fuck are you clipping the tips? Are you scared?

Cut between the veins of the leave's fingers ( ridges ) and turn it into a fern. Leave the leaves in tact and watch your side shoots
