Is it wise to cut the upper leaves during flowering?

So you're saying your results wouldn't have differed here in the Central Valley, where temps have been around 90?

LOL!

Get real.

where did i say that? :?

i don't live, nor have i ever grown in the central valley so i can't really answer that question. :neutral:

i'm not saying you are wrong. i simply did it my own way. i still don't understand why you have such an issue with me and my garden. it's MINE.

method VS knowledge -



knowledge is what you know about a how a plant works.

method is how you apply that knowledge.

knowlage is power and i have power.. power to grow all the buds i want and trim all the leaves i want too...LOL

I trim fan leaves sometimes ,so growth underneath will get more sun. I also pinch off all the growth that will not amount to much.

Shit!

But your plastic is too white, your PVC the wrong size and your screen mesh is a 1/4 inch too large!

What you don't seem to get is, I don't care if you do what I suggest. All I ask is an honest opinion of my comments.

Your weed is yours. All I was offering was a way to maybe increase the amount.

The most extreme example of success with this technique was with a clone only Skunk Hybrid that I really wanted to save. It was originally a sickly clone that didn't grow at all for nearly three months(mid April to mid July). It finally started growing and ended up producing a 1/4 pound. We tried some quick dried buds, and it became imperative to try to save it. I'd already removed about 60% of the foliage. The roots extended more than four feet from the stalk. I ended up cutting off about 60% of the roots to get the ball small enough to handle. Before transplanting, I removed the rest of the buds, leaving about 10% of the original vegetation. I put it into a five gallon pot, under 18/6, with florescent bulbs. It vegged all winter, and when placed in the garden in early March, produced a nice crop of fluffy but stony buds. It again revegged and produced two pounds that fall. I kept cloning the SSK for three more years, but finally lost it when one year it refused to root. Its time to go, I guess.

What I didn't get in this exchange is your defensiveness. I offered you a way to minimize the damage.

A simple "Thanks, but I have a plan." would have sufficed.

Then you suggested my methods are bogus. Now I'm defensive.

I'm really surprised to see your claims of "knowing nothing", coupled with your attacks on me and my unsolicited advice.

If you really prefer I just tell you "nice plants" and "good job" when I see pictures of plants in distress, I can do that.

You clearly need to open your eyes wider then bro sorry. One of my girls is about as much as half his carport. 10 feet tall by ten feet wide. Those are ONLY three of my girls too. FDD is small time =)
Why stir the pot? Grow size means nothing, and truthfully, on a square foot basis, I'd say FDD will double your yield. Plant density means a lot.

I'm limited to a suburban back yard. Cannabis covers about 5% of it. I'm happy.

Everybody has their own methods and preferences. The point of a site like this is to share knowledge. Reader beware. There are some very convincing bullshitters in the World.

Personally, I think these kinds of threads with people expressing strong and differing opinions is a great read for the newer grower. He gets a chance to calibrate his bullshit meter.

Well put my friend. His might double those THREE plants although I am expecting 6-9 lbs from them so I dont know. Not to mention those are ONLY three of my outdoor grow. I agree though density means a lot, exactly why SOG works so well for yields. I did pull down a lot of branches to let it really fill in . I cant even tell if these are in bloom yet so they should really fill in.

Have no idea why this thread got so heated. Amazing when people think they know something about something and it turns out they don't they can get all pissy with you. I used to get .5 grams per watt now years later and lots of experience gathered I now get over 1 gram per watt even on a bad day. Whatever works. I prefer to listen to people who have great results, not bash them for expressing how they got them but thats just me......

Where are you?

I'm very much in touch with the club market, and I'll yell bullshit, now. You've never sold a pound of outdoor to any club for $4k in the last seven years. Even my Trainwreck doesn't bring that. Currently there is a huge glut of medicine, and a serious shortage of cash, everywhere.

Go to Weedtracker with those stories if you really want a verbal attack. It's a patient's site, but a ton of vendors post there.

Wow you just cant mention anything in here without being called BS on I guess.... 3500-4K is exactly correct. Blue Dream is 3400, Pot of Gold 3800, Super Skunk 4K, Purple Sweet Tooth 4K, Cheese 3800, Chronic White Widow 3600. If I pick a crappy strain or doesnt do well is 3K like some Ice I did recently that was a bad pheno type. Worst I have ever gotten was 2800. Sorry but 100% truth. They sell for 40, 45, 50, 55,60 and 65 per eighth always doubling their money. Redicules pricing? Yes it is. Highest should be 45 IMO. I should add they buy Blue Dream for 2500 as well that is just as good. Reason? They know/like me a lot more and are stilling making lots of money on it, like 2X.
