Haven't checked the plants in a few days. Going to go tie some stuff down and trim again.

Not really sure why my rh was so high. I unplugged my humidifier from the controller and checked to make sure the dehumidifier was running. Going to check on it...
Furthermore i can come to the conclusion that the explosive growth is a factor of the defoliation because the growth took place in buds that had no access or limited access to light from being covered by fan leaves.
"Defoliation has been extensively tested and documented as a way to increase yields not just for marijuana but many other types of crops like chickpeas."

You have nothing to support that the growth is better with no defoliation. Your own words would apply in this very same argument.
At any given time i have 500 plants growing. I am 100% positive that this works. I have personally done it my self. I will do it again and document it for all the...
I guess we're we differ is that I feel if a healthy fan leaf is shading a bud site or under growth in a situation like this, it's beneficial to remove it. I do this in every one of my grow and I take plenty of pictures in my journal. You can see the explosive growth of buds after i do this...
Each grower will have his opnion. I am not one to believe that all sativas have this issue. Maybe certain genetics but I have don't this countless times. Again i respect everyone's opnion but for anyone that keeps asking for a grow journal. I have yet to see one that supports that this theory is...
Check my current journal and you will see what I mean. I put before and after when I defoliate. I think these guys assume I mean strip the plant completely.
This may not work for some people based off what ever factors they grow in, but it does for me.
And I'd put an aeroponic system up...
Don't take off all the leaves. Don't even take more than 50% but yes you want to remove any fan leaves that are large and in the way of any bud sights. Don't remove any new growth
No it's not a few leaves. It takes me about 1.5 hours to do my plants and thats with 2 people. You need to defoliate and then either put up another trellis or LST
Lol I agree. But I have already done this my self. So I am 100% sure of it. I'm no new grower on the site. Just simpler changed our name based off an issue with our prev acct

Let's also not forget the factor of having multiple plants fighting over space and light. If I allowed my plants to just over grow they would fight for space and light which overall would lower my yields. Even with a simple 4x4 area with 6 plants and one light would exp this
