Приветствую, друг! Проводите дефолиацию не чаще одного раза в неделю, следите за тем, чтоб на растении оставалось не менее 2/3 больших развитых листьев. Удаляйте только уже развитые листья, которые больше не вырастут! Старайтесь удалять не всё подряд, а только ту листву, которая мешает проникновению света к новым точкам роста и междоузлиям растения! За раз вы можете удалить 1/3 всех больших листьев растения! Но не больше 1/3 (30%) !!! 👆 Листва выступает в качестве батареек для цветов растения и новых побегов, поэтому большие листья растению тоже нужны, они никогда не лишние для растения, мало того, растение рассчитывает что они у неё будут до тех пор, пока оно само их не сбросит! Удачи, друг! ✊😇

Hey growmie, I defoliate once a week if need until flower or at least until the stretch stops.Wouldnt do more than that could stress the plant out. Hopefully this was helpful and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.

I pluck leaves here and there throughout my entire grow, just not excessively. Then i do a full defoliation of the bottoms and some top areas either before flowering or right as it's beginning in those first 2 weeks. I did do a "Schwazzing " before and that has a bit more specific defoliation schedule, one heavy before switching to flowering and then one more heavy at 21 days of flowering.👍

I like to do it in the stretch, just to help the plant stay shorter through that time. The stretch is the only time I stress them a little. Cheers
