Wa strain you usingSCRog + Extreme Defoliation + Monster Cropping
Results are stunning so far.. Yielded over 1LB of heavy frosty dense bud from 3 plants in 3gal pots in 3x3 tent.
Now about to compare with this DIY Aeroponics setup in 4x3 tent using monster cropped clones.. targeting >1.5LBS.
The Key: Its all about bud sites. Kill as many fan leaves as you need to to expose as many bud sites to as much light n air as possible.
Curious to see other techniques and results!

Did some serious defoliation as mentioned in here. Exposed tons of bud sites
Nice result, was it before/after drying?
Kinda give me hope for something half decent out of my 2/4 tent
Wa strain you using
The ones I just started are Northern Lights x Big Buds (Autos)This batch is Utopia Haze
Have also tried with Northern Lights with good results, and now trying with AK and Green Cush. I know some strains yield more/less.
The trick is to evenly spread the bud sites out over your canopy especially if you are using quantum LEDs. Then defoliate anything under the canopy. You can also tuck leaves out of the way to preserve their nutrient stores for utilization deeper into flowering. Once a leaf is spent it’ll fall off on its own. I rarely take leaves from above the canopy.
The ones I just started are Northern Lights x Big Buds (Autos)
I put six 3 gallon canvas pots (coco/Perlite) in my 2/4/6ft tent, I know I'll probably have to kill off three of them because of the size of the tent but it's my first grow so I germinated extra seeds and started a few extra plants so I could afford messing up some and practice some LST and still end up with a few healthy ones even if I manage to kill/stunt some of them.
I have two Mars Hydro TS1000 lights 150w each in there.
That's kinda what I was planning, I have plenty of air circulation and good extraction so I'll play it by ear a bit and learn as much as possible.Squish them all together, let them grow wild amongst eachother, put a net up, guide each bud site to their own hole, if one gets too tall bend it to another hole so you create a flat canvas...
All id care about is bud sites and flat even canopy. Cut everything else. Trust me the plant is resilient! As long as its relatively healthy you can bend er up quite a bit to get more buds light
I’ve asked before and never really got a solid answer:
what uses the light more efficiently? Fan leaves or bud sites? What should be getting light? Do the buds and pistils and trichomes and all that other shit absorb/need light or is that all done by fan leaves?
how many leaves do you remove at a time and when? Does it stress the Plants?
how about all those other small shoots that keep trying to grow out of the bottom of the stalk? Do you continually cut those off?
