Extreme defoliation...2

[Billy the Mountain]

SLT!
single leaf technique!

That's hilarious

Can't wait to see SLT take off!

Who needs SCROG when you can just SLT it

If the internet has taught me anything, someone will take this seriously.

Soak it in CalMag it’ll revive dead leaves.

Someone's got to say it...so I will. Please forgive me if this is some satire thread and I don't understand what is going on. But if it's not...I'm wondering what the heck happened here? If I had a plant that looked like this, I'd toss it and start all over again. I've never seen a plant stripped down so much. I just read an article that plants don't even like being touched in the first place, that it causes them big stress. Now imagine the massive amount of stress this plant has just gone through. The end result isn't going to be anything wonderful. Sorry if I am sounding like a dick, I'm not trying to be. I just don't understand what you've done. I try to not touch my plants at all. I am only trimming first leaves and tiny leaves that get no light way down on the stalk. Plants need their leaves. NEED. Leaves are what the plant uses to make food, and that food goes to the flowers. No leaves means no food for flowers=smaller flowers and tiny yield. You should have left it alone in the top photo. I see nothing wrong there, it looks fine - no need to touch it at that point. The after photo is nothing short of a crisis. Again, if this is satire and the joke is on me...then... well done!

Your sarcasm detector is working

Why do I always have problems after the flip?

Probably needs a firmware update though. Reduced latency in the new package.

Just give it low levels ppfd and a calmag booster. It’ll be fine

Because you didn’t flip the pot too.

Supercropped a little too much.

It happens, I had a little accident last week with a leggy tk x Durban. She healed up alright though especially considering it was literally snapped and holding on by a piece of stem skin.

I wouldn’t touch anything. they look great, leave them grow for now. Prune when you flip to flower, let them get all the growth and energy until then.

Defoliation triggers generative growth buy increasing carbon gain to fruiting bodies. Homie just went a bit to hard. It will recover.
