Blew hard at the coast in monterey cali. Windy, and dropped inches here. The farm took a beating. Lost a few plants due to collapse on a gutter in between a row. So lucked out. But yea man it was crazy and we are getting more in a few days

That sucks, dude. Everything will be fine, I'm sure. Everything is restored, the main thing is that everyone is alive and well, I hope. Nature does not forgive anyone. Therefore, the death of the plant is nonsense, compared to real problems.

Totally agree. There was alot od destruction. My best friends work is leveled. They will be in bad shape. For sure. Total loss. Everything. But no injuries. Alot of property damage. Everywhere around us.

Sallisaw. I did defol and took about 20 percent. Was still bushy as hell. I will let them stretch a little and see what they do.
Here is a pic of them after my 20% defol

So just 3 days and look how they came back from that Defoliation I did the other day. I think I need to trim them up again already. Sooooo bushy. I keep moving leaves around and keep tying them back but I cant seem to keep up. Thinking I need to just wait a little while longer to trim anymore. Thoughts anyone?

Not sure I have ever seen a bushy plant like that..She will continue to push out new leaves thru 3 weeks in flower! I would defol again, especially if she is fully recovered as she appears to be.

In any case, if she were mine..I would have small fans pushing as much air around and thru her as possible without creating windburn.

Weather alert!
A 1 inch snow has turned into 4 inches and still coming down..Major in the lake Tahoe area. (I am a little higher than Reno itself).
The good news is that there was little wind with this one.

That's what I have seen in a couple other journals. Every time I chop 20ish percent, 2 days later they look like this again but with more budsites pushing up. Right now I have 28 bidsites counting the 17 mains.
My first grow and I manifolded these girls so I am kinda learning as I go. They are stretching like nothing I ever seen before. Like each budsite is racing to the light. Lol.
I amdefinately a fan of the manifold for sure... thank you for your comment. I feel like a 20% defol just isnt doing what I need it to do. I have 3 of those 6inch fans cheap fans going. No moisture on the leaves yet, but for sure watching for it. Gonna be crowded as hell I know that.

THANKS MAN!!! I have worked hard to keep these girls happy. I have 3 of those 6 inch cheap fans blowing over and around them right now. I think I am gonna wait until my reservoir change on Saturday and defol the crap out of them. 20% defol just isnt making the cut. Lol

Per defol, is it true the less budsites you leave after defoliation,(cutting smaller budsites and stems), the bigger and better your buds get and increased harvest weight? It seems like reverse to me...

I do have been playing with variations of manifolding. Check out my blueberry kush post. You can see some recent lst. It takes time to get these results. Further in soil, on long veg cycles be prepared for 4 up pottings. That’s how it works for me anyways running approx 120 days veg cycle. I’m allowed 2 flowering and 4 non flowering plants as I read the law. So this allows me to have a harvest every 60 days. More than enough for me and what I gift out.

It’s more about the budsites you do have getting optimum lighting. The lower budsites never develop fully. I have done 3 stage harvests. Takes forever and the yield per plant goes up but the total flowering time can be increased by as much as a month. This is with ScrOG style growing. That’s why we defoliate and cut back so much. What’s left with training turns into a canopy of solid bud. Almost no garbage, and very little trimming when harvest does come.
