Nice man! Your plants look great, and it helps me to see where you're at in a similar flowering timeline in soil.Starting to see some trich development.
It's crazy I'm 20 days in and my Fruity Pebbles are just frosted everywhere but the other 5 strains are about where yours is there...maybe a little behind (strictly in terms of trich production). That actually makes me feel better. I've been wondering if the Fruity Pebs are just real nice that way or if they're what the expectation should be and the rest of my crops are weak. I dunno if that make sense. I'm pretty dabbed up hahaha....pics:

Thanks dude! I'm thrilled considering all the mistakes I've already made on my first grow :) And no actually it's a photo, off a clone from the same breeder as the rest of the crop (Fruity Pebs back right)

Thanks brother. I'm curious to see how this defoliation goes. Let me tell ya it was a painful leap for me. The more research I do the more i think the amount photosynthetic rates are possibly more important than overall photosynthesis. And that excess foliage is actually slowing bud development. The plant need enough carbs and sugars to carry out vital processes and have storage for environmental stresses and periods of low nutrient or water availability. Indoors under controlled parameters may just be the case that its not as beneficial as I once thought because they get all the light, nutrients and favorable condition they want. Plants adapt for survival but indoors some adaptations are not needed.that looks beautiful,, my friend. grow the hell on!
I'm not presenting this as fact just testing some stuff out.

Just trying something new. I usually only trim for airflow
I think that you are right about the plants adapting I just come to the opposite conclusion, that if they have adapted to their environment then altering them significantly can defeat the purpose. Like you said though, it all depends on if those adaptations are needed. You may be onto something about heavier defoliation speeding bud development, my worry is that it will be at the cost of the plants adapting with smaller leafier buds that ripen early. I dont know if you have pictures of your previous hydro buds but it would be cool to see a comparison between those and the buds from this grow when its all done.Thanks brother.

I may have if I can find my old phone. Tbh the bud structure I'm seeing is looking promising. It's different strains though and soil not hydro. Hard to say. I know to much defoliation will stunt them especially at one time so I think it's going to be a balancing act. My goal this year is forget everything I know and start testing some of the science I have been reading. That and try new media and get mother's. I'm not overly worried about a pretty grow or harvest on this or the next grow.I think that you are right about the plants adapting I just come to the opposite conclusion, that if they have adapted to their environment then altering them significantly can defeat the purpose.

Most of the defoliation stuff I see on here is pretty standard, If you want to try something out of the box, about week 3 or 4 in flower, depending how long the stretch is and how they look, start freezing the leaves off.

Well I put it out there, I think the best thing is if anyone finds it intriguing, play around with it, from past experiences when you start talking about out of the box stuff on these boards, there is a lineup of guys waiting to tell you how wrong your are or how you don't know nothing. and only argue. don't need that.

Feel free to shoot me a pm if not to much trouble. This year I'm dedicating to try new things.Well I put it out there, I think the best thing is if anyone finds it intriguing, play around with it, from past experiences when you start talking about out of the box stuff on these boards, there is a lineup of guys waiting to tell you how wrong your are or how you don't know nothing. and only argue. don't need that.
