Advice needed

[steeders]

Hey folks I have removed 2 leaves from my plant just small ones that were in the way of bud sites is it okay to do so I've been reading up since I done it a couple hours ago and now I'm worried the plant will stop growing is this right ?? I know you shouldn't mess with a plant that's in flower but is it okay in veg ? I was planning doing a scrog so I thought it was okay ? Someone please help me lol

Many thanks in advance (",)

Thanks paddy m8 I was worried some people say not to I take it there on about plants in flower ?

 

[NuttyProfessor]

some people take more than a couple of leaves , you should see what they do when the flux and manifold , you would think the plants would die

this is another member whos a mate now


Fluxing NL x BB

Is that what they call the mainline method ? I've seen a vid on YouTube I was cringing m8 but it did end up with 2 big buds but I couldn't do that to my plants seems a waste but each to there own (",)

 

[NuttyProfessor]

the end result is amazing , ive never tried my self but i will be this time around .

 

[steeders]

What's the reason for doing it m8? Is it to do with nutrient uptake or something along that lines ?

 

[NuttyProfessor]

no your building all main colas , instead of the one big one you normally have you can have many more they all get the same light also

Ah right that makes sense I suppose (",) here is a nubie question for you but since you have helped me out before I'm inclined to take your advice !! How old should my plants be before triggering 12/12 ? My mate does it at 4 weeks but I think that's a bit soon I realise you can leave it as long as you want but I just wondered if there is a best time to do it m8 ?? Sorry for the dumb questions like but if you don't ask you don't know (",)

Also look up defoilation for greater yields. If you like growing a plant for 6 months or longer look at main lining or on here they call it flux.

It requires a much much longer veg time.

 

[Dutty Panty]

I bloom after roughly 8 weeks of veg can be longer or a Lil less.

I yield hp minimum more veg=more bud
More roots = more bud. Bigger pot= bigger buds
For the most part.

My journals show perpetual ongoing rooms that yield between 8-12lbs per month.fluxing, main lining, bending can all produce incredible results but I can yield way way more in shorter periods of time without it. That being said I've done it in the past and currently have a mainlined Dutch that's been growing since late October. I just don't have the time or need.

 

[steeders]

Thanks m8 you have put my mind at rest up give both things a look up (",)

 

[Dutty Panty]

Defoliation during flowering for greater yields!

 

[steeders]

Man your flower room is totally...amazing is the only word for that some lovely bushes in there (",) I seen your mainline/flux it's cool looks brutal at first lol (",)

 

[Dutty Panty]

thanks.

It's a great method. I just have deadlines. The Dutch grows out of control so figured I'd try once again. Done it out outdoor and a couple times indoor. It's perfect if you can have patience. And limited heighth restrictions other than that top or super crop. I'll I do is top and thats it.
This plant I'm competing in our plant of the month all it was done to it was topped. Grew 90 days from seed to hang

 

[steeders]

thats pretty impressive m8 i have to say some real nise buds on that girl (",)

 

[steeders]

How long did you veg that for m8? And when you say all you done was top it how many times did you top it ??

Veg was about 40 days. Think 36 exactly

Only topped once week 4 of veg
