hey guys just read this somewhere....well it goes like this............QUOTE
The timing is so critical. You must be around during this period to guide the growth under the screen, and to make sure all gaps in the screen are filled, one bud site per screen hole with standard poultry netting (2 x 3 inch holes). Excess leaf growth must be removed above the screen, which usually means all the fan leaves are removed. Never mind arguments about whether fan leaves should or should not be left on plants, this is a different animal, and the rule here is, all bud sites must see the lamp in order to develop. At least in a small scrog grow, fan leaves would overwhelm the neighboring buds. Get a good sharp, clean set of pruning scissors and just leave them with the grow. You'll need them every couple of days during this period.....UNQUOTE.......my question is this...have you guys heard or actually done the ...cut the fan leaves off ?...if i cud it wud really open thr canopy up...as i have lots of big fan leaves...wud love to hear your thoughts guys.........thanks inadvane ........be lucky weedtastic
