I was referring to lst - but still, my operation is very small. I’ve dabbled in several techniques to increase yields. They all seem to work but in my humble opinion the increased yields wasn’t worth the time.Defoliation makes plants healthier by increasing airflow (thus directly lowering the chance of fungal infection) and also by directly inducing systemic resistance in the plant-this happens in nature when insects feed on a plant or herbivores feed on them. This is an extremely well documented phenomenon in the literature. The question is, how much defoliation is best? No one knows exactly, but some defoliation can improve any plant that needs it. In threads like this you have people who are totally against doing anything to the plant, based on their own feelings, vs people who have tried these techniques and experienced personal success, or have read the scientific literature on the topic and have an open mind.
Defoliating might make overcrowded plants healthier. But for plants grown outdoors, or indoors with adequate space, it reduces yield and terps.Defoliation makes plants healthier by increasing airflow (thus directly lowering the chance of fungal infection) and also by directly inducing systemic resistance in the plant-this happens in nature when insects feed on a plant or herbivores feed on them.

Oh yeah, 48 hours of darkness before chopping is common, i’ve put outdoor cuttings in a water vase in darkness before drying too.Ha! Any truth to it? I’ve never But I’m sure there’s much I don’t know in the craft of cultivation
Interesting. I’ve got a harvest coming up in a few weeks I’ll give it a try. Thanks,Oh yeah, 48 hours of darkness before chopping is common, i’ve put outdoor cuttings in a water vase in darkness before drying too.
LOL I love the way the internet growers try to turn topping and bending a plant into rocket science. If they really wanted to increase yield, sea of green is the way to go- no topping or bending needed.
I don't do autos, but I hear you shouldn't ever top them.I've never tried the sea of green because my plants are outside during the day and it seem like it would be a lot of work to take them in and out of the netting. But I grow autos.
That’s not how I understand sea of green.

Some people like large, meaty colas, flopping every which way.
Others prefer smaller buds, maintaining the firmness of their stalks — the perfect size for an intimate smoking session and nothing is wasted, but you.
Then again, some people…
Wait, what were we talking about?
Details...lolThats a perpetual garden. SOG is typically a grow with 4 plants per square foot. All monocrop of clones and little or no veg time. Fastest way to a good yield.
