He’s saying you didn’t do it right. How hard is thsy to understand?
And if you didn’t do it right how can anyone trust your results?
You are either ignorant, or a troll. One person made a comment in broken English and you take that as solid evidence? For what it's worth, I don't claim to be an expert, and never have, and I'm still learning new things every day because I have no problem admitting when I'm wrong or when I make a mistake.

Thanks bud I’m going to take my advice from the PMs. Have a good one.
You already said that, and you said you were leaving this thread, so what happened? You do realize those people are PMing you because they have no leg to stand on, right? Words and practices have definitions for a reason. Keep doing you, though...Just understand that when you can't admit when you are wrong then you are just preventing yourself from learning.

They PM me because they don’t want to argue. They don’t care. They just saw I was interested and PM some info. No high pressure sales tactics nothing. Just info for me to read and absorb.

It's called confirmation bias. People who tend to believe false information join up with others to bolster their claim. I would also highly suggest you get an actual book that has been written by an actual long time grower because it sounds like you are getting all your "knowledge" from YouTube and IG. Ed Rosenthal's Marijuana Growers Handbook would be a great starting point.

Yes you are also correct, defoliate has been a kind of 'buzzword' for over a decade here to remove most leaves in veg so there is no winner here, like saying I have milk in the fridge but do I have cow in the yard?
To me as a new grower chopping up your plant is either good or bad. When people say it’s bad and still do it, it’s hard to get behind the idea of that. As a new grower. Does that make sense?

Then they want to defend why it’s ok here but not here. Then it’s 12 pages of arguing. If chopping up the plant is bad it’s bad. If it’s good it’s good.

So to a new grower to say taking SOME leaves is bad but SOME entire branches (leaves) included are removed without thought. That’s hard to get behind

pruning is usually necessary indoors for airflow purposes.

I don't think growing any type of plants is for you. You just don't seem to get "it" at all.

Negative short term effects and positive long term effects are a thing.... a thing you are failing to grasp.

Get a book and it will make sense. Trust me...I'm not trying to be a dick. I was very confused when I got into this because there are more idiots in forums and on youtube than there are actual educated growers. Shit didn't "click" until I started reading actual books written by actual experts.

I personally dont defoliate as in the term remove all the leaves I more prune as necessary because I scrog
Yeah finding a balance is where I’m at. I’ve yet to see anyone here on the past few days suggest to remove all leaves. No ones even mentioned it. We’ve been talking about removing some larger fans to expose other parts of the plant.

the question is how many fans is too many

Dude...words have definitions for a reason. You really are making yourself look like a fool, and nobody here can change your mind, so I'm really done with you now. Go through my post history and you will see where I clearly admit when I'm wrong and I have no problem posting pictures or even full logs of my shitty grows.
