Hey Bsr045,

I wanted to add a next and last step that I recommend to anyone defoliating while in flower, and that is to go back and check your bud sites for dried leaf stems that are left over from the defoliation, it's a good idea to go back after about a week or so and pick out what you can from within the bud sites, as the dead stem material from the trimmed leaves can lead to mold issues if you aren't careful.

A big plus to all this effort that is put into a defoliation like this, is that the bud sites that are left over are pristine and have a bold and un cluttered look to them (more light and airflow around the buds )which actually in the end leads to less work during the trim and less anxiety during the drying process.

Most of the leaf stems can be removed by hand, but other areas I'd suggest a nice pair of needle nose tweezers, self clamping are the type I prefer to use, and it can make clearing the plant of those hard to reach areas a breeze, and plus this way keeps contact to the growing bud sites to a minimum.

Another plus is less twigs in the final product once it's all dried and cured, more dense buds without any added debris, always a plus in my book.....

Happy growing everyone.:blsmoke:
You explained everything really nicely.
Wow, I never thought about mold. I do pull those dried stem pieces off, but never thought about that. I have a few to pick off tonight when the lights come on. And ya, it makes it a lot easier at manicuring time, and cleaner looking I think.

So BSR045, what did you end up doing?
