sure do. ed rosenthal's closet cultivation
pretty good read does suggest trimming fan leaves in small areas.... so far the best book so far( nothing to do with defoliation) is TLO by the rev
friend hardcore defoliated couple plants... need some input

maybe my scale is broken??? [video=youtube_share;hfquW-m_UdU]http://youtu.be/hfquW-m_UdU[/video]
what he said.
that's funny cuz we all have seen your plants, and they are average at best. you better be able to handle some criticism when you post that many pics on the net. don't get all butt hurt when I say this as it's not an insult. we CAN call you out on your mistakes and imperfections because they are for everyone to see. you CAN'T call us out on anything because we aren't the ones handing out advice, at least I'm not.........

You just got a spanking for lieing. Keep it up kid, and you'll get another one from me. https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/584390-leaving-lower-branches-2nd-harvest-2.html

Well less then a year ago a large farm was raided by the Feds and local authorities. The search warrant was obtained specifically because of pictures published in a newspaper story earlier. They cited publicizing the pictures were grounds to pull each growers card since it was against the stated regulations. The farm owner was arrested on federal charges and supposedly every individual grower had their legal grow status pulled.
But I'm sure you know better since you live in California and there is no mmp then the one in your state right? Even before this story I was warned about posting pics on CL that could be considered publicising my grow site. Since I belong to a clone exchange, I do it anyways. But like I said, why would I just to appease someone here? No motivation for me.

If you're not willing to pay for an anon service, use the TOR Project. It's excellent.

Kinda like what I told sir ganja the other day, After plucking all the leaves off and feeding that advanced nutrient crap, His plants need 2 weeks of plain water and rest to recover from the stress. lol

**Read, what Rosenthal wrote, makes sense. But let me get back to the OPs reason for starting this tread.. His homie applied "unplanned extreme defoliation"--- that is whats not making any sense to me, not the practice of systematic leaf pruning for planned canopy management What his friend did, most likely will not help the overall finish~ Unless.. Cannabis can use it's root system like some parasitic plants (achieving all energy requirements from the roots), when the fan leaves were removed, then I guess it might be plausible~ But I doubt it..

Oh I know all about TOR and use it quite extensively in places like SR.
Like I said it is not something they really enforce and I post pics of clones on CL. That farm was just on the radar because it was so large and the newspaper story was just a big fuck you and so the state retaliated. I'm just a guy with a few patients, they don't care about me. But I'm not gonna play reindeer games with trolls looking for dick comparisons contests with only my dick. I actually believe I have posted pics before here at rollitup up but not to appease trolls.
oh I lied? about what? Oh and you said that side lighting doesn't work, that is absolutely WRONG as well. try again idiot, but be more specific this time.

Have you ever listened to Heavy T's grow show? DFZradio.com Anyways, they are a radio show and I have heard them say that defoliation has personally worked for them to increase yields. I'd like to say 2 things about that statement. 1st. Not massive defoliation, 30% of the fan leaves at max is what they have said, an 2nd If it increases the amount of light that gets to the lower bud sites and the plant pulls its energy from the roots then I think it can increase yield. Who knows tho, I've been practicing it somewhat, when I'm not lazy or doing other things.

Cool, I'll check out that website~ Yea, my only issue is with massive defol, but I will for sure try defol experiments in the future just to see the results first hand.
