Personally I wouldn't try trimming 2 weeks before harvest. A plant uses leaves to convert energy it absorbs from the air and in the soil.

I was not the one who posted about doing it. I just asked a question about it actually. I don't typically trim leaves off unless they are dying off but these are running long and the lower buds look like they have further to go before I harvest them. I figured it will help those buds out and am hoping it may help things mature a little quicker so I can start hanging them up soon.

Some of the buds have most of the pistils turning color and receding a bit while others still have mostly white pistils.

EDIT: What I noticed right after the manicure was there was better airflow to the plants on the right side of the tray. It was almost nonexistent before because the foliage was so thick.

I have had plants lose all of the fan leaves on their own. The bud leaves got nice and green and the buds kept swelling. It was Malawi 100% sativa so it might be a genetic thing :confused:

@welshwizzard - that LA Con looks chronic! What do you feed them? I am still learning how to love indicas :weed: :clap:


The LA Con scissor hash was splendid. I still have a bunch more bongsmilie

For thrips I have also had good luck with neem and coco-wet (mild soap). I have heard that many mild organic soaps and oils will work. For example lavender soap and olive oil. When I went bug hunting at midnight last year I found a ton of pests. Tossed them in a jar of soapy water and they died in seconds.



Cheers,

Thanks every one for the info. This is why I figured I'll try the freebies.

AzaMax is a highly effective pest control method designed to decimate pest populations. It is made from completely organic active ingredients, specifically one, potent, bio-compound found in Neem oil. AzaMax contains Azadirachtin A&B and more than 100 limonoids.(from their site)

Mix it strong and make sure you give it three doses. I think it is a little hard on the plants but it works. Try neem first if you can. If that doesn't work then give them the A-bomb :)

Yo man, it was a basic canna run in coco, canna a and b, rhizo early on, then just cal-mag, epsom salts, neem oil. Pretty much it, didnt do big feeds or flush much through out so did a 2 week flush at end.

Really purpled up and was super dank.
Got some super variation in on this lot so I have high hopes!

DNA LA Con is my staple indica, but now I go for my GSC keeper. Ridiculously heavy stone, face melting, no paranoia.

Do you have any hot air exhausts for the water heater or such? That could be an option If you can tie in without pushing exhaust back to the house. Something that can be blowing hot air any time of the day will attract less attention than a chimney that has hot air coming out day and night.

I just treated my girls in flower and I treated the veg area yesterday. I plan on second treatment monday morning, then the final one on fri. How does this sound mo? It took a year for issues but I guess lately it's time to pay some dues to the ganja gods.

Just the chimney brest m8, but gona put another 6" fan in the loft and have it drawing sum cold air from.out side and hook it up to a y splitter so that's pulling the air from tent and from outside and pushing out chimney?
