Never like defoliation in transition stage , seems if would/will hurt the plant to much stress, ect specialy in pre-flower maybe thinking likr this : removing all fan leaves stressing the plan to make more bud sites ? any way not for me. LI do like to remove all fan leaves 3 days before harvest , have also removed fan leaves 2 weeks before harvest to aid in "drying" the plant out . Seems that buds really fatten up. Contacted Jungle Boys about seeds ? help ? (do they sell seeds) ( looked at Alien and found a few of their seeds cost $300.00 for 16 seeds They) have one of the top strains in the La area
I think they do not defoliate but practice the "One Node Flip" method. Their plants have 16 tips and are so tall when they flip them that it would be stupid if they don't remove some of the lower nodes. After that I don't think they defoliate.
agree -- $300.00 for the book !!!!!!!!!!!!! wow "Tree of Life" at that cost it should grow it for youIts all just hype and marketing.

didn't know it was a collective - guess they don't sell seedsCheck out the vid.. They are pretty heavily defoliated. There is one vid which I can't find where they talk about their grow method and talk a bit about defoliating and religiously adhering to VPD....

I use this one http://opennlabs.com/vpd/VPD_calculator.php
btw I think 71F is too low temperature for veg

I saw that vid. They also talk about how they have to pump the nutes to get the foliage back acter each “schwazzing”. Lol.
I guess quality and plant potential are not too important to them.

Why would quality be effected by defoliation? All of the THC, terpenes etc are produced in the trichomes. The key is not to compromise the trichomes and if you have ever conducted lab analysis for profiles you just about in all instances find the highest THC percentages occur in buds directly growing in the light (good light exposure).
I don't say that this temperature won't do the job, but higher temperature brings more rapid growth.Your welcome to think whatever you like. My plants tell a much different story. I run the most cost effective range for the grow timeline that support. I find strong steady growth at 24hr light with these settings. I developed incredibly strong and resilient plants that yield signifigant amounts in flower. Please support your thought
