you arite guys , only just noticed this uk grow thread , i like it i like it lol , i got a question for you lads, Is trimming a good idea??? now im by no means new to growing but iv never ever trimmed atall, as science says the leaves harvest the light producing energy therefore i never understood trimming the plants. i Know alot of rly rly experienced growers half of them trim saying they leave the leaves closests to the buds therefore diverting the energy into the places most needed , this to me sounds like bullshit and the rest agree with me that you shouldntrim atall, but i see so many ppl trimming i finally decided to have a go and see what happens, iv got 18 plants in a space roughly 9ft long by 4 - 5 ft wide, iv got a 8 inch outtake attached to a carbon , a 4 inch intake under 2 600 w hps lights, which i will be adding another too this week when i go and get a bigger fan for the intake, staying with 2 ntil i get it as iv got the temp at a steady 28 degrees and the RH at 50% so i dont want to make it much hotter without adding a bigger intake. Iv posted a piture of the last crop i did in the same space that i didnt trim and the crop im doing now that i have trimmed both at around the same stage a week into flower, basically just want some info on whether its worth doing and if so have i over done it atall, if you need better pictures let me know and ill pull a few of the babies out of the grow room, cheers
