well i'm sorry english is not my first language , what is the terps ?
I'm definitely staying around
I wanna ask u few questions if it's possible .. first do u think defoliation is important during flowering ?ur girls look abit bushy i think, but still so healthy and beautiful ofcourse.
the second is about the bubble hash , is it a must to use dried trim ? i'm a new grower and i'm keeping my trim right away in the freezer without drying them , would they still make good bubble hash ? , and if i have the small 1 gallon bubble bags how many grams of fresh frozen trim should i use per batch ?
Thank u very much in advance
Cheers
friends. 
In most cases, I'm not a proponent of major defoliation but I do rip a few leaves off every now and then.
I take the bottom leaves off so that no leaves are touching the soil but I don't lollipop very high. I stop where the branching begins or just above this area with the purpose of increasing air flow. Most defol that I do is to increase air flow to minimize the risk of PM and bud rot and such. Some strains do better if some of the leaves are removed, some don't need it (longer node distances), and some won't like it very much. I guess it's a case by case thing for me but I don't condone just ripping leaves off without any forethought and a game plan.
For increased light penetration I usually just tuck leaves back.
IMHO any major defoliation should be done before flip to minimize stress. Light defol can be done into the second, maybe third week of flower but doing it any later may be a stress trigger for a plant to go hermi on you.
Back in the day I used to defol big time. The reason I did so was because it used to get "dry" during the grow season and flag leaves were worth their weight in gold.
At times there was no weed to be found because of the War on Drugs push so we smoked a lot of flag leaves during the dry spells back in the day. Now that I don't need to smoke the flag leaves I tend to leave most of them on now.
I think Growlow and CajunCelt have you covered with questioned that you had regarding hash making. I think both of these guys have much more experience than I do with this so I'm really glad that they were so kind to offer their advise.
Thanks fella's!!
, i actually cut off few leaves in the second week of flowering and i kinda regret it now , i feel like my plants growth slowed down , so most probably i'm not gonna do it anymore , i believe those leaves will be needed later cheers bro 
Thank u man
it'd be great if u checked my journal whenever u have time and give any suggestions or advice
Katatonia's Journal - CFLs - Northern Light - Soil
and btw ur plants look like heaven !
Yeah; at the alter of MJ, is defol heresy or worship...? And if organics is fundamentalist, is defol extremism? These are the questions that keep me awake a night.....
