damn thats a full ass canopy bro hope u dont get overcrowded during this flower cycle. i know u weaved this time so hope that helps for support and more bud sites. but lookin green and healthy!
Yes it is pretty full, but I figure if I have to, I 'll take a few precious fans off. I really don't like removing healthy fans above the screen, but I may have to selectively remove some this round.
Very Nice raider, did u prune any of these plants? i forgot if u mentioned that
sorry stoner mistake lol
Thanks man, I lollipopped the bottoms under the screen, put no pruning above the screen yet. I took all shoots that didn't make it to the screen off. I actually kept 24 clones, but could have kept 100 they were so full. Like I said above, I will decide over the next couple weeks if I have to thin out any fans. I am torn between what to do when it comes to taking fans off, I think of them as little solar panels, but the growers bible says if they are blocking buds to remove them. There is so much controversy over this issue I am in a quandry. lol
I have a buddy that is growing some of the my pk clones and is 6 weeks into flower. He removed about half of his large fans and the buds look thinner than mine turned out. He was trying to let more light get to the buds. He is also growing 6 20 gal pots in 10x10 room, so his should have turned out bigger and fuller you would think.
So anyway, lol the short answer is no I haven't done any prunning above the screen if that was what you were asking.
I may thin a couple to see the difference.
Edit : I also ended up with about 80 grams from buds under the canopy that were completly shaded last round..which show that they still receive lumens throught he fans. They didn't turn purple though, just lots of brown hairs and very sticky.
