Re: Tutankharmon (pyramid seeds) 400hps, soil cocco mix, Grow
plant looks great, with heavy indica plants like yours i find the fan leaves get really big like dinner plates and the fingers so thick that it stops all light getting to lower branches so they take longer to grow, i remove fan leaves blocking lights as the plant soon replaces them as more grow,
outdoors plants lose leaves all the time, insects, animals and disease does damage to leaves plus the weather so indoors we give them all the care they need and they keep all their leaves unless we remove some ourselves, when you damage a plant it releases hormons which tells the plant its under attack so it then finds a way to recover and it does this by having more vigorous growth so its only a matter of days before the plants replaced whats its lost with twice as many new leaves,
if your unsure then hit up bassmans defol journal, he strips his girls way back, i mean pretty much nothing at all left on them, so clearly defol works plus you have not gone to heavy on it so dont worry to much, its your plant so do what you like to it, some plants i dont use defol on i just use lst but others the leaves get huge and block all light so these leaves are removed and instantly you see the growth improve, one of the new white widow x skunk#1 i got growing is producing huge fan leaves, bigger than my hands, these was blocking all nodes and growth was very slow at the nodes, so i pulled the leaves off leaving just 1 set of fan leaves on the main stem and within days the nodes had grown a couple of inches so i pulled the plant right over using lst and also topped it, so now ive got 10 main cola growing upwards as all the nodes are at the same height as the plant is over on its side so its growing sideways, once the place i topped grows that will be another 2 main cola growing upwards so the whole plant should have even growth instead of one main cola, if you keep the growth at the same height then all parts of the plant seem to grow a bit quicker,
