18x4 Table Before And After Defoliating

[cottageman]

I usually do this at the end of week 3 with very good results, so I decided to try this at the end of week to/beginning of week 2 instead. The strain I'm using finishes in 8 weeks, and I use bud blood which gives me buds a few days before normal, and I noticed that when I waited til the end of week 3 some buds were already getting behind because of shading. The first 2 pictures are when I started, and the last 2 are when I was finished. I am going to do a final touch up at the end of week 3 but I think they look pretty good!

Just wanted to update everyone on the table. It went pretty well! I did not notice much of a difference at all between plucking a bit early except that there were more fan leaves in week 5/6 that I had to trim off. normally I have to pluck only a few. The table is about to head into flush mode, this table had a bit of a problem with low ph in the medium which resulted in a calcium or mag deficiency, but overall it's looking pretty good! First half of the pictures I did not have the glasses to offset the lights, but I did my best with my iphone 5
