170 to 200w a piece yup your playing hard ball! Following this grow. Best of growing to you! They will stretch still even under very high output, genetics must be running hot if 480w a pair?
Really big fan leaves
- Thread starter Rbalenbin
- Start date
I have 2x 480w meanwell drivers in parallel. Not sure how that math adds up, I just made sure my breaker was up to standards and followed a tutorial.
Thank you, I also have 2 spiderfarmers sf1000 for side lighting if they stretch like crazy after flip

Big fan leaves, ha no shit! Penetration is good, lol side lighting as well. Cant wait! You have to understand why l was sceptic? With advertised wattages.

What does the difference make about a leaf size? Big, small, medium ishh.. just curious I have an auto I'm doing now Crystal Meth and a Lemon Skunk and the Crystal Meth leaves are smaller than normal. Pretty sure just genetics...

Indica Genetics Mun

No difference other than thicc chonky indica leaves. I personally practice heavy defoliation of all large fan leaves Day 1 (flip to flower) and again day 20 of bloom. It can stress out some genetics but the cuts I'm running right now love it. You get much fuller colas and less humidity, pest pressure and more airflow & fatter buds!

. Oh bugger! Where'd they go? Hopefully they'll find their one true grower to follow.

Yeah like calvin said.. there is no real harm in cutting up big fan leaves other than giving less photosynthesis.. if it doesn’t block a lower branch and shade it keep it on there… it sucks when you over do it and keep small leaves on a brach due to over defoliant though

I've got an amnesia haze auto that has some pretty big leaves for a young plant. So different to the strain beside it. I've got roughly the same size hand (8.75 length, 10" span) for reference. Not quite as big as your leaves, but hand size leaves at week four is different for an auto. Spewing the middle and lower set off to aid in penetration last week. They were quite a bit bigger again. I love seeing two completely different structures side by side.
Will be interesting to see how large they get if i can stop myself from removing them when it fills out during stretch lol. The only defol I usually do Is the main leaves on the 5 main nodes around week four or five.
