totally irrelevant analogy as nails and hair do not produce sugars for us to have energy...why not just supplement more light instead??My verdict:
Keep some fan leaves but for the most part they just block light. Bud sites grow proportionally to the amount of light they get.
Ppl that say "it needs leave or it wouldn't grow em" - do you cut your hair and trim your finger/toe nails? Better stop that, you wouldn't grow those if you didn't need em by your logic
Who said the amount of light is the problem, the light is being blocked. That's the prob. The leafs are necessary no doubt, but I remove lots of leaves and my bud sites reward me for it.totally irrelevant analogy as nails and hair do not produce sugars for us to have energy...why not just supplement more light instead??
The nails are those things you drove into your trunk so they can get mo' iron.I may be doing something wrong. My buds have hair, but they don't have any nails? Where are the nails located? I think I see nails right at the axis of the stems. ARe thsoe the nails? Should I trim them?
Wasn't that in one of those 1970's growing books? lolThe nails are those things you drove into your trunk so they can get mo' iron.
I heard if you scrub the calloused skin off your foot and add it too your soil it speeds the development of the radicle.Could be. Actually folks should file their nails and use the fines in their tanks or pots. Folks say it works better than Brawndo.
not scuffling but to put lighting at different angles and on movers will eliminate the shading as well correct?Who said the amount of light is the problem, the light is being blocked. That's the prob. The leafs are necessary no doubt, but I remove lots of leaves and my bud sites reward me for it.
To each his own, I'm not into Internet scuffles. Do your thing bro
That's true, but a mover in a 3x3 or 4x4 tent is pretty tough.not scuffling but to put lighting at different angles and on movers will eliminate the shading as well correct?
I have a mover in a 24"x42" closet with a 400 cmh on it for selfing and crosses....two on movers overhead in 5x5 chambers with a cooltubed 400 below the canopy AND A 8 54 W 46" T5'S 2 in each corner minsplit ac and fans along with a dehumid so air circ covered as well...That's true, but a mover in a 3x3 or 4x4 tent is pretty tough.
IMO, even if the lighting issues are all true or false, that really only addresses one possible advantage to defoliating. The other advantage, which IMO is equally important, is air circulation in small spaces. I live near the ocean, and it's already humid. I grow in a small space, so PM can be an issue. Regardless of lighting or photosynthetic production, a moderate leaf prune helps me to get bigger plants in a smaller space without risking poor air circulation. It seems to be working good in the big picture for my situation. In large production spaces it's likely not as beneficial.
Nice setup man. +repI have a mover in a 24"x42" closet with a 400 cmh on it for selfing and crosses....two on movers overhead in 5x5 chambers with a cooltubed 400 below the canopy AND A 8 54 W 46" T5'S 2 in each corner minsplit ac and fans along with a dehumid so air circ covered as well...

so no need to remove food factories correct?
Did you actually read my statement...Obviously NOT! Go ask UB for clarification, maybe between the two of you you can figure it out.smells like you're the douche...and your obvious faith in Jorge proves you dont know anything but what you read...Jorge shows off OTHER people's grows and knows how to write and market books

so they are food producers that block light...floor dont need any light does it?And I would like to clarify after all the information here and th other threads conclusion is... Leafs : blockers of lights.. Don't believe?
The wood on the floor ain't getting nothing!
What??? Man... Sarcasm... To light up the mood.. People are about to inetkill each other hereso they are food producers that block light...floor dont need any light does it?
