She looks bad.Non lollipopped plant day 41. It has lollipopped itself and left me with a mess, bud sites that will never develope and no leaves at those nodes by the bud sites. Fail.

Just about to say i love all the large buds you are getting on the lower part of the plant and i am sure all them half dead leaves are looking good and attracting insectsNon lollipopped plant day 41.

thats how all plants look when the lower leaves bud sites don't get any light,She looks bad.
Didn't get hole picture, that's why I do, to get light threw to medium, I don't rape her. My buds larger @ bottom, my badthats how all plants look when the lower leaves bud sites don't get any light,
lets see a pic from the top of the plant and it will be full of large buds and green heathy leaves

This is exactly my expression when I looked under the canopy lmfao
I its done right, that's I've never had problem, some people like to hear themselves talk.This has been a funny thread to read.
I've only been growing a few years and started my growing always defoliating. The last two runs I have not and my yields have been so shit I haven't even put any pics up.
Next flower run I will be going back to stripping them back on day 21 from 12\12
I used to easily get a pound per run and the last few runs have been like 10-12 oz.
Defoliating done RIGHT does work.
Having said that I would never do it to an outdoor plant, as there is no need, the sun is a beast of a light

Aerating your soup is important. With no oxygen, anaerobic microbes will take hold... and those are not the types of microbes that are typically beneficial.Hi everybody,
My plants are doing fine after some issues I encountered, thankfully nature created this plant so resistant and strong that the plant can survive in a proper way even under my care.
Im telling you that some of them had to stay lying on the floor without light 1 month because technical issues and now with some high energy HPS lights they are thriving !
They are in 30L pots with peat moss and horse manure compost, I gave them a full dosage of chemical fert NPK 8 - 3 - 6.
Also I'm making some microbes soup mixing worm and bat casts with water and honey, I don't aerate nothing cause I don't like extra-work, I left that soup rest for 1 or 2 weeks at room temperature, I let some light reach soup surface, I'm just trying to replicate nature at home, I imagine the puddles where those microbes life and usually is a quiet place with no turbulence, it's just a dirty puddle I don't see why I need to aerate this stuff, of course we have here some stuff to debate.
Have you looked up the "hesisenburg tea" - it's some good stuff. Kind of like making a microbial party for plants, your no til would love itYou guys were right aerating the microbial soup is necessary to success, I've been doing some research about microbes teas and soil microbiology, these subjects are very complicated but I like to keep my things simple and cheap.
This is what I understood, annual plants like Cannabis prefer bacterial dominated soils while trees, shrubs and plants alike prefer fungal dominated soils.
With this in mind we want to favor an aerobic bacterial dominated soil, so that the tea have to contain more bacteria than fungus. There is available on internet a lot of research done by horticulturists of how to get the proper tea.
From now I know that my path in cannabis growing is organic "No-Till". 50 - 100 Liters pots, with excellent soil, plenty of nutrients and beneficial organic substances as "humic acids" with chelating agents that deactivate heavy metals for example.
The number of benefits of organic "No-Till" growing seem to be endless.
