Any rate.. Back to the point of the thread..

My opinion is that you shouldn't defoil during 12/12 until after the initial stretch. Usually 14 days after the 12/12 switch is a good time, IMO.
I would try it on half of what you got. What is the worse case scenario?
I'm trying it on a clone strain that I've been growing a while. So far the results are very good. I top, super crop, and now trying the defoil @ 14 days & 42 days to see the difference. I'm also doing a side by side of two nute regiments for this run. I'm not making some wild guesses out my ass over here.

i have done it at all diff stages of flower
findings were large fans not needed after stretch is finish
they only aid in growth and assisst in stretch

findings - they only help part of branch and stalk connected to

finding - never but never defoil single bladed lefs sticking from buddage
never never defoil small fans surounding buds , the ones the suger up
cause if you fuk wit dem you fukin wit yo production and end product - not the groth of yo plant

finding- sum plants start to drop large fans sum just yellow up sum turn purple ant end sum remain green till end dont drop do nutin

finding - you get far by experimenting an not believeing nutin till proven for self be kind take in info try erryting

finding - this used to be a good place to learn here i wnt to elementry - high - and graduated college right here
now have kids talkin that should be lisning - cause they know not of whut they speak - but are eagger to speak




note- all findings are things i found through the years not things i read not things i heard -im smokin since 1965 - gardening about 6 years



good luck to all
read - experiment- and grow
dont believe shit -not even me till you try
most of please dont spread shit till you tried it an know it works
then this place can go back to being sumtin

Well......my wild guesses out my ass suggests you haven't quite reached the Holy Grail of cannabis forums. You see, you have to tho in sum amino acids, electrolytes, and while hopping on your left foot while chewing gum, spinning around and humming Kum-ba-la, toss some Advanced Nutrients Snow Flurries over your left shoulder. Now that's a whirl!

You're a retard and a troll.

the reason i do not defoliate is that if a leaf is using more than it is producing the plant will pull out all the nutrients, and the leaf will turn yellow and fall off.

I've read every post you and rd3 have made, can you guide me to the website you guys use now?
Just for mentioning the site in a PM Potroast, RIU's admin, removed my PM privileges. So, you're asking that I get banned (which might not be a bad thing). Site is by invitation only anway but yes, got some great growers in there and no trolling or ill will is tolerated.

^^^^^^troll warning^^^^^^ A troll with super vision. He can see PAR at a single glance!!!! He has Geiger counters as eyes......
honestly i seems like the people that are trolling are the ones calling others a troll...lets see this thread is about something you clearly dont tolerate , yet here you are....completely welcome. just wondering why do you come back. when someone with WAY more posts than the three of you combined agrees with defoiliation and i waited but i saw no attempt to discredit or belittling of his statement. he basically called you all chidren yet no response.... is it because you respect him more or you just agree he knows more? i know i do

when someone with WAY more posts than the three of you combined agrees with defoiliation
First off, Then by all means, you should listen to that poster and ONLY that poster, I mean, why even bother with starting this thread, you could have just messaged the poster in private and alleviated this flame war and stupidity right from the get go. Instead you have to create animosities and cause confrontation with people over something you're only going to point your finger at and claim they're doing wrong or that your way is better, then provide pictures of a SCROG that is completely unrelated to anything we're even really discussing.

SO please do not include me in your flame wars....

Second off, I didn't fully disagree with defoliating and backed further experimentation

Thirdly, I didn't fully agree with defoliating either and believe that no further experimentation on my part is worth it, (especially with this strain).

Fourthly, I just signed on to this forum 3 days ago, and in day 2, I entered a nice discussion about defoliating, that quickly turned into a troll fest and flame war.

DO you understand? 2 days.... I even went out of my way not to involve myself in this stupid shit. NOW, I got YOU linking me with the other 2.... SIMPLY because I "Liked" one of their statements......

GROW THE FUCK UP! Grow your OWN pot and stop asking for fucking help and then setting people up for trolling. Now you fucking douchebags have a nice fucking life. I could give a flying crap if each one of you fell off the face of the earth.

Why are you still in this thread again? What's your experience with defoliation again? My results aren't in yet. Another 4 weeks.. Still testing in the real world, no speculation. So far my results of defoliation seem positive. Things could change for the worse. Only further tests will tell.

Also testing a new nute regimen vs a control group this run.

You jumped in for no reason. Tell people not to flame then call them douchebags? Real cool dude. You're a real pro buddy.

Trolls should make a thread and all bash each other in their own forum...this man asked about defoliation...stay on topic, let me know what you yield using defoliation PJ...and keebo your listening to the right guy, I argued with him a couple times but found out he was right later. Good luck on your thread as it has always been and always will be a heated argument with growers...but experience tells me do it ;)

You're the kind of person that gives Troll-It-Up a bad name. A place where a bunch of lazy babies won't do their homework, where they won't bother to search and lurk first in bonafide gardening forums, and won't bother to consult a bonafide book on Botany and learn what makes a plant tick. Now, since kids like you have been used to being spoon fed by our twisted liberal left educational system, I'll do some enabling and feed you some educational pablum. :dunce:

READ THE GODDAMN THREADS BEFORE YOU MAKE ANOTHER COMMENT and before you bait and play another RIU-noobie-in-the-wrong-forum-Attention-Ho-drills.

There, that's five threads reflecting what a bunch of dumbnuts (posing as experimental technies and know-it-alls) frequent cannabis growing forums....and it only took me a minute to find and C/P these links.

Don't make me have to come over there and give you another spanking, ya hear! :fire:
