Pruning

[ph25]

Hello, should I start defoliation on my plant, or leave the leaves to help nutrient intake? I think she looks ok but any advice much appreciated, thanks

I'd pretty much leave it alone at this point, but I would have trimmed out the interior and cut off some of those lower branches that aren't really going to develop into much before it started flowering in earnest

Looks healthy though

Thank you for your advice. I left some of the lower branches because I waited too late to defoliate. Think there’s enough airflow throughout the plant, fingers crossed.

I recently had the same question, and similar/good advice, but ended up taking off a bunch of fan leaves because I knew there was no way it Wasn’t going to get mold/rot issues. Also sprayed with citric acid (1Tblsp./gallon) via a 1gal. pump sprayer, drenching completely.
She (ViperCookies, from rando seed via pro(duction)-grower friend) is my first put in-ground(the Earth), and has had some great microbiotics feeding it that I am sure have helped greatly.

TLR- If you have too much ambient/expected humidity you might want to take prune/defol, but make sure you give them a delicious meal as well, and maybe a mist-spa of some sort

This is probably going to be very larfy, but I got some crossed-seeds on a lower branch I’m stoked to try next Spring-Summer
