Harley's Airpot Grow - White Widow - Liberty Haze & Lucy Under LED

good morning and weed Harley!
 
I just read you're not susposed to do any defol until flower (OPS). How bad will this set me back? I defoled yesterday and now I am concerned I have stunted my girls. :peace:

I've seen plenty of folks around here defol in veg, and their plants always seem to bounce back just fine. :thumb:

Hey Harley, Your girls are looking awesome. I'm betting you will be glad you did the defoilation once you put them into 12-12. They are going to love all the light you have given them.:bravo:

Thanks Flower Child I am seeing the girls recover nicely and looking forward to flowering soon. As they get larger I may need to add another light I'm afraid it's gonna get too crowded in my small room for just one light. I got a little over zealous starting so many plants. I think I could of filled the space with two or three plants with out too much trouble. But what the heck more plants equal more meds so on we go full steam ahead Captain we all live in a yellow submarine yellow submarine yellow submarine. I'll be humming that all day now lol. peace out. :peace::thanks::cheertwo::high-five:
 
I take leaves through out the grow usually not all at once but if its so big and blocking light and I cant tuck it out of the way off with their heads I say:)
 
:peace:I read once in flower to remove leaves at 21 days into flower and then again at 45 days I think I like your way better. This last time I took a lot off (in my opinion) but looking back or forward the girls don't seem to be any worse for the trim. So I'll watch them closely and trim as I see fit. I will probably error on the side of keeping more of the girls in tact
 
I have seen good results with the 21 and 45 day thing. and I have seen the same with leaving them alone so dont just take what I say as the best thing to do:)
 
Defoliation depends on the variety...

Most Indicas don't seem to mind one little bit. Most sativas would rather you didn't.

I typically strip just fan leaves. And I only take the ones that are below a shoot. And I wait until the shoot has it's own fan leaves before I do this. This seems to force a bushier plant in all cases.

You definitely did not hurt anything. The plant will be just fine.
 
A fine smoke to you Harley:)
 
What defoliation Harley?:thumb:

They look great...even if there are too many, in your opinion. Harvest will be epic! :high-five:

I have to admit I was concerned but the defoliation actually helped the girls. They have bushed out nicely and have added some height in a matter of a few days you wouldn't know they were hacked. Live and learn that's what it's all about brother :circle-of-love::peace:
