Hi P. and directly in with a question Has watering/feeding schedule changed for either plant along the way?

Hi red. I grow in soli and feed with flower-nutes in all my watering.
Since the watering has reduced on the defoliated girls, they get less nutes.
The results will soon be seen…

Big girls - Sisters
Flowering for 46 days

No defoliation this week

So let us take a closer look at the buds

Which one os gonna yield more you think?

Cool thread. Everyone always has an opinion on this topic but I’ve never seen a side by side. I personally defoliate not because I have proof it yields more or anything but if I didn’t my room would look like a jungle and plants are stacked pretty close so it would restrict airflow. Keep up the great work and thanks

I take leaves off when close to harvest, three to four weeks from harvest,
my opinion is less big leaves translate to more dense, trich laden buds.

Narrow leaf types I let the big leaves turn yellow and drop off.

Great side by side.

Very interested thread paddi, as usual!

I discussed about defoliation with a growmate and we didn't agree with each other, him about big defoliation et me about reasonnable defoliation.
We'll both have the answer!!

Actually I started 3 of the big girls- Original Skunk - from Seedsman.
Two of them have been part of this small experiment.

No. 3 was put to flower 2 weeks earlier than the two girls in the experiment.

In this pic you can see all three of them.
The early flowering girl in the middle.
Seen in real, it´s clear, that she will yield less.
2 weeks shorter veg-time can be seen.

Well, I just wanted to show you the pic.
Girl in the middle has flowered for about 9 weeks.
The two other girls have flowered about 7 weeks.

As you can see. I defoliate normally...

P :smoke:

Hi Friends
Long time - no hear….

The big girls together:

Paddi · Jul 9, 2018

The two small girls.

Interested in what you think of the smoke from the Orig.Sk#1 . I ran their skunk special and was really disappointed.

GOT_BUD? · Jul 9, 2018

So you defoliate all the way through flower?

Interesting...

caliprop215 · Jul 11, 2018

The ones left alone definitely look bigger imo

Cork144 · Jul 12, 2018

great test be good to see what comes from it, but this is the most extreme defoliation you can do, im sure what a lot of people do isnt to this degree, a third plant defoliated half as much as the pruned girl would of been v interesting too

Paddi · Jul 16, 2018

The two small girls, one week later.
Now 7 weeks into flowering.
No leaves removed this week

The trimmed girl:
