My plant is at 7 weeks or so and I always tend to leave pruning as removing leaves doesn’t seem productive. But with how bushy this thing is I think it’s a necessity. I have removed over 100 maybe 150 leaves and it’s still way to bushy to allow light below. Just wondering if I should still remove more or just leave it until mid flower or so
I did a bunch more research and came to the realization that removing perfectly good leaves just to aid the lower inferior leaves is pointless and the more logical thing to do would be to remove said lower leaves that aren’t getting the light. I will continue to prune what I feel is a must when it comes to bud sites come flowering. but I no longer believe healthy leaves in direct light should be sacrificed for any reason at least while still in veg.
