That's what I meant by washing them off that is bits of oatmeal I made a batch a while back to feed my big girls. I sprayed them with it now I have to wash it off.

No mite problem the one plant got the stock and leaves burnt by a light falling on it I do have to wash the leaves at least the one's that aren't coming off tonight.

Same thing with bud in the dark you finally figured it out.

You actually spent about two minutes doing it to half a plant LMAO and now your an internet expert even though you didn't kill the plant or lose any yield, but you have spent months preaching against something that didn't hurt your plant a bit and I bet there was more branching and yield but how...

We all agree with how and when in veg some do more some less. In flower some do it different just like chili as if that has anything to do with this, but as usual you have know good argument so you start off on some la la land idea. The big benefit is in veg and instead of arguing for months...

I have looked into airated teas but believe in the breakdown fermentation and as far as oxygen in the water some good strong shaking with a cap on will maximise it but you also have to shake up the feed mix to add oxygen to it also. I will run a comparison one day.

Ya many people think we keep them bare no we just create more leaves and stems for more growth. I should have started this thread next week when some results could be seen.

I believe I get more out of it going through than natural cycle where elements break down into other forms and more can be leached out. I haven't airated tea so can't really compare but I like having my consistant feed ready and partaly or mostly broken down.

I've seen some good growers do it at flip it does make sense as new branches will come out just before the buds set with better penetration. I wish i had defoliated once more before flip.

It should be good to see how long have they been in flower?

Leaves will give you nutrience as will all organic matter I use my leaf I take off to feed my plants back just like nature intended they grow in last years leaf stem roots. I put two cups water in a blender and keep adding and blending leaf till I have 3 cups total one cup of leaf then put that...

It's not constant I like to do it repeatedly but two weeks apart and in a few days the leaf mass is back and in a week much more then before because there are more leaves coming from more shoots then the original fan leaves would have allowed but by next week we will see what it does. As far as...

Ya 3-1-2 was found to be the best for growing hemp keep those ratios 9-3-6 and things will be good. I use the organic equivalent Alfalfa but it adds a lots more then npk.

Lets get this right I'm talking out of my ass because I have been defoliating a long time and know what it does with real experience. You did It one time to half a plant and the yield you guess was the same. Did you not think it would have been better to do the whole plant and maybe do it...

You did half a plant once probably in flower and you are now an expert because you guess they were the same. Your scientific method is nonexistent with no Idea what your doing or talking about get back to me when you have done something.

I defoliated a shopping bag worth at 3 weeks flowering that would be more than half of the large leaves from the plants I should have done a bit more. I'll still have a massive yield with a big plant to reflower another 8 oz with no veg time but this time the whole plant will get more light I...

I don't think veg time is extended much if any doing defoliation but plant mass is much larger. I believe in veg time if you have the space because you can veg for a week and get two oz veg for 3 and you get 4oz veg for 6 weeks get 8-12 oz with two months dedicated to flowering wouldn't you...

Mainlining is just combining topping and listing that he hates as with everything else that doesn't just have four tops and as you can see the topped plants are far slower and will take at least a week to start growing fast again I don't think they will ever catch up.

Post up some pics lets see those fine ladies

I got an update most everything is growing fast the two that got topped haven't grown much and have fallen behind the one with the burnt stalk looks bad but has survive a few days so I hope it recovers so I can defoliate one of them for the test. Ok this was feb 3 just before transplant...
