Question

Does anybody use the technique of trimming the sun leaves as your plants grow. It is a method I use especially early and to the top so more bud sites are formed. I dont really hear anybody talking about it on RIU.

It has made a huge impact on my grows. I have had plants that produce 5 ounces from multiple plants in the same grows even because of the method. Anybody else do this or is this something anybody has questions about for me?

no questions from me

I leave them alone until the last 10 days of flowering where I thin them off the plants to help let the light penetrate farther down...........or if they yellow up. They are little sugar factories and I just leave them alone. I'm assuming your reducing the size of each leaf, right?

You should try it on a plant. Take a look at my current grow. They have over 20 bud sites a peice and I have had huge harvests from it. 5 plants and over 550 Grams last time. It appears as though I will have a nice crop this next time as well. Just a suggestion but I dont hear much about it. I know there is alot of methods out there but I find it to not harm the plant or have to top if you just pluck some of the bogger ones. They replace themselves within 3 days anyway and has another buid site or two.
