I ordered on 11/28 from Attitude and 11/29 from SeedBoutique. Paid both with CC. I have NOT received my Attitude order yet (12/12) and my USPS tracking says the same thing (preparing to dispatch.) Attitude gave me the same 'festive holidays are busy' response. I got my SeedBoutique order...

Growing indoors, we supply the plant with nutrients indefinitely unless you're going organic. It doesn't need to store anything (not that I'm saying leaves are ONLY for storage.)

The same carbon scrubber on your exhaust should take care of the smoke. If not, maybe get a bigger fan for more air exchanges, or smoke near the scrubber. I blow smoke rings near my plants and it has never caused an issue but I smoke infrequently.

Thanks for the quote - removing "suckers" is actually pretty common when growing tomatos and does not hurt the plant. Lollipopping is a similar technique we use in SoG to promote the development of a single cola with no popcorn buds. What were the consequences when you removed leaves? what...

Leaves are flat. The image was only to show what surface area means in general. A leaf removed would add more light to all the smaller leaves below it. i.e., if you have a 2 foot tall plant and the light can't get passed the first 6" of the plant due to the canopy, you're not utilizing the...

Leaves do have a purpose. They store nutrients and they protect the plant from the elements (and animals.) These things are not an issue for us indoors however, as we provide nutrients the entire cycle, and most of us don't have a deer that's going to come bite off our main cola. Why would you...

For instance, we know 100 little cubes have far more surface area than one big cube. Taking into account that a big fan leaf will shade A LOT of smaller leaves on the top/middle/bottom of the plant, removing that fan leaf will let more light go down the plant and hit more smaller leaves vertically.

by "body load" I mean the physiological symptoms you get like nausea, bloating, upset stomach, constipation, etc but mainly just nausea.

I don't believe training or pruning a plant is "mutilating" the plant. If you train your plants a certain way you probably don't need to defoliate, and tucking away leaves (or even just cutting leaves in half, as Ed Rosenthal suggested) does help but is far too time consuming to do...

OK. I don't disagree with you, but here's where I'm puzzled: Answer me this. Why is it that if I remove most/all of the fan leaves during flowering, I get an increase in yield from around 0.7-0.8 GPW to close to 1.0 GPW? At the very least, defoliating does not have any adverse affect on any of...

Any of you guys actually tried it? I've never heard of anyone who tried it actually bad mouth it. Keep growing leaves and popcorn buds.

I feel as though LSD/shrooms are a "full" psychedelic that contains a lot of qualities (euphoria, introspection, empathy, etc) and the 2C compounds each have a specific "trip quality" - i.e., 2C-I is euphoric and sociable, whereas 2C-E gives me heavy introspection. Other RCs, such as the...

I've only tried 2C-E and 2C-I and the body load is very unpleasant for both. I have no experience with 2C-B but I imagine the body load isn't as bad a 2C-E (how can anything be?!) Dramamine helps with nausea from these substances but supposedly results in drowsiness (I never tried it.)...

A LOT of misinformation in this post. I created a similar thread, a FAQ on defoliation, below: https://www.rollitup.org/advanced-marijuana-cultivation/352300-defoliation-removing-fan-leaves-higher.html
