I'll usually just pluck the 1-2 biggest ones shading out the smaller tops, tuck them away if possible ✌

I’ve been defolianting my plants that I did a no technique lst scrog and I’ve had good results. I have a second plant that I’m experimenting with and I’m about 2 weeks into flower with it and I’ve been very heavily defolianting it as it grows new fan leaves. No scrog on this one and it does not seem to be effected by it’d from what I can tell.

I will do that, and that is why I’m doing it. This plant has been an experiment from day 1 so nothing to lose really.

Lots of nodes with lots of light exposure and air movement, it looks very thin but since the stretch if I get those nodes to bud and eventually grow and stack together....I’ll have some mega colas on each branch of the plant which is equal more weight. Just gonna have to wait and see I guess

Not anymore, I’m using my hydro pots with soil less mix now. Idk if I will ever go back to hydro actually having grown in soil. Just much easier to control all the variables in soil imo.

IMO I’d say there are cheaper alternatives out there tho. At roughly 12 bucks a bottle I’d use them again for flower (maybe) but for veg I’m going with a more cost effective route
