Defoiling is a bit depending on the plants growth characteristics. At one stage you want to help the plant or simply have to do it. Autos are easy. If you want a good harvest, touch em as little as possible. Folding the leafs away and not cutting it off. If you run into PM, removing the infected leaves just helps and reduces the time needed to clean up. Otherwise, i lolipop for the increased air flow to prevent PM and other issues. But avoid it when my climate is spot on. Some strains are so bushy, it even helps the plant to increase air flow, can even say you need to defoil. Others need every leaf they have and cutting off just hurts the plants gas exchange capacity. Before defoiling, i suggest to use your head a bit more if you really need and what are the benefits. Plants transport nutrition, depending where they need it. A bud in shade will still grow, if the rest of the plant gets the energy for photosyntesis. The main goal is always to remove as little as possible.

Many moons ago I use to do testing for many international breeders and out of hundreds of seeds this one was one of my top 10 strains . While the thc count isn't huge the total canabanoid count makes an amazing smoke with a huge terpene profile . This strain has amazing calming effects while keeping you alert and focused , great for anxiety and getting through those tough days

Fuck them bru. There's a lot of other seedbank to choose from that deserve the business. If a oke can't be bothered to reply he clearly doesn't give a shit about retaining a client base. Support those that deserve the support i say

Yes. Gave her some Chockolate Gelato pollin.. Could have a interesting hunt for mid summer..

Hi, still going strong I suppose it’s almost harvest time Good luck to everyone

Wasnt especially ment for you PM trimms are harsh... that way or chop chop, when heavy infested. I think you did a rather awesome job with the difficulties due to your leave. Sorted it out fast and efficient once back. Just posted the comment in regards to defoiling. I think people remove to often to much.

Keep on keeping on. Great work.

Woah stop the bus. Been hunting for the freakshow for months. [emoji7] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

So weekend away and things are running as they should. Temperature stabilizing around 24 gives me hum of 60. Best I can do without a dehumidifier. Plants are a lot happier after a couple of days. In the veg space on top it’s running a bit Cooler and humidity around 70. [emoji20] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Always a good topic [emoji1787] , I focus on the top 20-30cm of my canopy any buds in that area gets light as much as can so I take of some fan leaves . For me most buds under that turns out to small or large . But I do make sure that I leave as much fan leaves as possible below that , they are like sunpanels for the plant. Week 6 would be to far in the development to then only give the small ones below light [emoji2371]? I use take take alot of when I started because of Google but growers more experienced than me guided me and now I take as less as possible but where needed. That's the part I mostly like of growing this part , the learning curve that takes a few months [emoji1787] Sent from my Hisense Infinity H50 using Tapatalk

Like I said... For smaller tents air movement is not as important as air exchange... But with larger tents... Without fans, my leaves do not move... And that's a problem I want new air on the surface of my leaves constantly and that's where the fans come into play

Nice share, Ive followed Kushman for some years and what an absolute legend he is. His technique is one ive tried a few times but will be honest didnt find much of a difference between the traditionally supper crop, i did how ever developed my own method based on kushmans chiropractor. Jungle boys are anther group in a league of their own and I recommend watching some of their videos, they have a few good tips aswel , anther is those crazy boys from High Rise / High Rise Tv, they are doing some crazy things aswel (mostly for those who want some ideas on how to turn this into a business). Always educational and a great source of inspiration

It's in my diary , " Soil Grow" . Nor sure how to post the link. But she won't disappoint you brother. Sent from my Hisense Infinity H50 using Tapatalk

Week 6 done and start of week 7 This will be my last update until week 3 of flower. Everything has been boring up until now lol OK so we have seen the organics with some fast growth and they look lovely but the big question is, where the hell are the pics of the synthetic Marzcanna!? Well I don't like synthetic that's why lol! Actually the reason why I haven't posted any pics is because before I started this grow I had just enough amended coco from my previous grow for my organics, laziness soon kicked in when I realized that I'd have to buy anther brick, wash and buffered it, so I went and bought "washed and buffered" coco with perlite instead. Now I have mentioned that you should still wash and buffer your coco regardless and guess what I didn't follow my own advise, I watered the coco and planted directly (I won't mention the brand of the coco or the company, because it's partially my fault for not washing and buffering it regardless if it was advertised that it was) long story short you can guess what happen next, slow growth, alot of yellowing and even after loads of flushing and dosage of cal - mag it took the synthetics along time to recover (this is why I prefer to mix my own soil and this will be the last time I buy in pre made coco or mixed soil) The synthetics are now looking healthy and growing fast but I doubt it will catch up with the organics , I will post some pics soon but I guess it has thrown off the all side by side I had planed for this grow but forward we go. Here's a pic of the grow room at this stage and happy heritage day growmies!

100% with you man. I also kak my pants in summer as my grow space is also not climate controlled and when I see that tent hit 30° or over I just see the smells disappearing. So what is lined up for your next run?

These got the chop after 9,5 weeks , minimal attention and the FF Super Soil only got FF Probiotics and FF Fire Juice. I'm going to do a second grow in the soil and will only top up the totes as needed to the top. Did a wet trim and left some with just fan leaves taken of and will take of sugar leaves when dry with a Cannabrush to compare. Can't wait to see the yield , usually I get 650/sqm 1. White Wedding 2. Strawberry Fields 3. Zurple Punch Sent from my Hisense Infinity H50 using Tapatalk

Love the totes man.Love it! Are those 100L totes? Raised grow beds are way expensive and this seems so practical. Thanks for the inspiration bru

So these lady's was switched Monday , almost a week into flower. Mostly just plain water and once a week a FF Probiotic , did FF Fire Juice last 10 days twice and once a dose of Micorrhizae 2 days ago. From here on just Fire Juice and Probiotics once a week. Let's hope that Zurple Punch doesnt stretch to much , can only raise the light another 30cm. Have a lekker week. Sent from my Hisense Infinity H50 using Tapatalk
