seems so, especially in small spacesThere is 2 schools of thought and a lot of debate. But the fact is anyone indoors that is pulling weight defols.
I always do my pruning,if I prune at all (and most every other gardening chore) based on the Moon Phase.....NEW Moon in supposedly best time to prune.Some say its best not to prune plants after a couple of weeks into flowering as it can/may cause renewed veg growth instead of full flowering..at least thats what I have heard....:>)...Just changed to 12 12 time. I have not done any trimming at all. Should I bother? There is a substantial amount of foliage. Can the fan leaves be trimmed without doing any damage?
Indoor clones, 5 gallon buckets. Grown in soil.
Thanks!

New Moon is a 'resting phase' for vegetation...lots of good Moon related sites out there if one wants more info...:>)...And low intensity lighting.. I dont fully defoliate but I do selectively remove some fan leaves to ensure penetration to the bottom of the canopy.
I use the New Moon Phase for germinating seedlings. Never heard of using it for pruning but I'll look i to that. Thanks.
I think a little like that also..i take the lower popcorn sites off but leave the leaves on.they help if any deficiency shows they will help yo determine what is wrong.and how to correct it..not fact but i believe taking popcorn sites off before flowering starts as i do not want toI always do my pruning,if I prune at all (and most every other gardening chore) based on the Moon Phase.....NEW Moon in supposedly best time to prune.Some say its best not to prune plants after a couple of weeks into flowering as it can/may cause renewed veg growth instead of full flowering..at least thats what I have heard....:>)...
Too much pruning deprives the flowers of the plant sugars/'food' they need to get 'fat',as the fan leaves produce that 'food'...that is why,during flowering,the leaves NATURALLY become depleted of that 'food' ,yellow and die...its all part of 'Ma Nature's ' plan....:>)....I think a little like that also..i take the lower popcorn sites off but leave the leaves on.they help if any deficiency shows they will help yo determine what is wrong.and how to correct it..not fact but i believe taking popcorn sites off before flowering starts as i do not want to
