I pull ald trim leaves all the way to the end, never had a problem before. Aside from being reckless and breaking branches! :sob: But that’s a me problem lol. If you are worried about open wounds a tiny dab of real organic honey on the wound will help it heal up and is a natural antifungal and antibacterial. I’ve used it whenever I’ve had to splint snapped branches and it heals up every time! The more you know :joy:

The areas where I’ve pulled the leaves, the buds have grown much more.. so it seems that the sugar leaves have value to a point but then there’s also a value in removing some of them if doing so expose Bud sites. And the Bud exposed to light seemed to become much more mature, but then the ones that are shaded don’t reach the same level of maturity.

Have you noticed the same thing?

If a fan leaf is covering a bud site you are better to remove the fan leaf( some prefer tucking, same results ) and meanwhile the sugar leaves on the bud will take over photosynthesis duties. End result: more/bigger nugs, less leafy/larfy buds. I usually lollypop the lowest quarter of the plant bare as well so the plant focuses all it energy in the upper parts of the plants.:blush:

If you are worried about defoliation and hurting the plant, then just check out 420autoflowers threads on the old site. The 420autoflower method involves extreme defoliation close to schwazzing and has the biggest yields in the world from single autos, literally and truthfully. Haven’t seen a single person beat his yields. Like 4-5 lb single autoflower plants, consistently, like gangster.

I’m in Vegas for a 4 days. My humidifier is gonna run out of water two days in, so it will have run out for two days by the time I get back. I’m interested to see what the dry stress does. I think the humidity is hang around 40% or so in my house perhaps higher since the temperature is rising outside.

So when I get back, I’ll update with more photos. I’m super excited to see what’s gonna happen. I put up more side lighting for the taller plant so that direct light can hit more of the Bud sites. Seems to grow better with direct light.

You’ll be fine 40% for two days won’t do much if anything.

well, I fucked up majorly. Firstly, I left my reverse osmosis water running for four days and flooded my house. Secondly, my lights haven’t been on. So it’s just been four days of probably darkness.

and secondly, I have to quit using cannabis so looks like I’m a little bit late to harvest. I was hoping I wouldn’t have to stop so soon, but sometimes there’s just bigger things in life. Pretty sure I’m not gonna be able to use any of this harvest. Lol :clap:t4: go mee

Oh dude that sucks! Damn, lousy luck. Flood, lights, etc… ugh. Maybe it’s the universe giving you a hand quitting for a minute. A head start if you will. Sucky but hey, things happen.

And based on how much water is used up just in a small amount of time I’ve been home. I’m gonna say the lights have been shut off for about four days now. There’s just as much water missing from the last five hours here as there was over four days

I’m so pissed. I’m about to just Rip everything out.

And I can double confirm that there is now twice as much water missing as there has been over the past four days. So the lights have actually probably been off for four days now. Fucking ridiculous.
