ha ha ha "this leaf is blocking the light" ha ha ha
Your plant in your avatar is not a bushy plant and isn't a real leafy one either. I wouldn't cut leaves off of that either.And so is a picture with a plant's leaves left on like nature intended it to be, like my avatar. His main colas are not that fat, nor do we see a room of mature plants ready for harvest. It's about at this point that folks induce premature leaf necrosis due to the application of bloom foods, do the never ending coverup dance by embracing an ill conceived cannabis forum paradigm. If you can't retain 90% of a plant's leaves come harvest, you need to start over and read some books on plant culture....and nutrition.
This is not hearsay people, it's science.
Sheesh, with every new crop of noobies......
Everything you have posted in this thread is a "pretty fucking dumb statement" . Straight up, dumbass.Your plant in your avatar is not a bushy plant and isn't a real leafy one either. I wouldn't cut leaves off of that either. It's funny that the breeder of his plants recommends defoliation for that strain, but that means nothing? They (DNA) must just be stupid noobs too huh? I've been growing for 20 years, your plant is typical for an experienced grower, you aren't a pot-god anymore than I am a noob. Defoliation can be beneficial whether you want to agree or not but saying people are defoliating just because they are trying to cover up leaf necrosis is a pretty fucking dumb statement.
Awww all asshurt because I picked on your buddy... poor kid. And this is your reply in this debate? You are calling me dumbass? HA! You're kind of a funny dumbfuck.Everything you have posted in this thread is a "pretty fucking dumb statement" . Straight up, dumbass.
Report back 4 weeks from now (which aint ever gonna happen)I'm having a hell of a time keeping up with these necrotic leaves too..
I can guarantee you that it will happen. Of course in 4 weeks these will be nearing harvest and I will probably trim off a lot more of the fans as they start to fatten. I'll make sure I post a picture for you before I cut any off ok? I would never give you the opportunity to say I cut them because they were necrotic (that is what will never happpen)Report back 4 weeks from now (which aint ever gonna happen)
You sir are a tool masquerading as a knowitall.Report back 4 weeks from now (which aint ever gonna happen)
Yeah, you do that, shit-fer-brains.Of course in 4 weeks these will be nearing harvest and I will probably trim off a lot more of the fans as they start to fatten.
Thanks for proving my point.Yeah, you do that, shit-fer-brains.
I didn't name call, I just said you don't have a lick of botanical sense.Oh you want to start name calling now? Maturity isn't your strong point huh? Not to mention youbjust lost the debate... thanks.
Hmmmmmmm......got a link?.....and whats up with ur pics stolen from open grow?
You mean my pics from opengrow that I use here because they show up full size? Do I need to post the originals here without the open grow logo so you believe me.. gawd... pretty obvious thats my room but whatever man.just because they are healthy doesnt mean they arent too big for ur light, if u lst differently and grow shorter you can make better use of ur light and ur fan leaves while wasting less time on veg. one of ur lights is shitty and whats up with ur pics stolen from open grow?
Umm ya I can match those and raise you anydays man. Nice buds tho but not anything that I don't pull every single grow. Except you top your plant and get 4 big colas. I get an average of 10-13 BIG COLAS PER PLANT. Must be my lack of horticultural knowledge huh? 18" buds is caveman easy dude pat youself on the back.I didn't name call, I just said you don't have a lick of botanical sense.
I don't lose anything, especially when it comes to potential yields. Some of us understand what makes a plant tick, and it aint your kinda hearsay. This is science, not anecdotal forum ballyhype.
Don't really care, you do and preach what you want. I'll stick to botany as I have for 40 years......gardening every kind of plant material you can imagine.
See that first photo with all its dark green fan leaves still intact after 7 weeks of flowering? Gotta clue what's happening there? It's producing carbos thru a process called photosynthesis. Now, what does that do regarding production? Go figure....... Also, that shot is not your typical closeup of the top 3" of a cola. It's solid bud AND LEAF for at least 18" top to bottom.
