Defoliation Experiment - Side by Side Sister Clones

So do you buy groceries and not eat them? Do you overfill your gas tank and lets it spill everywhere? Just wondering why you guys like throwing away money. I get that it's your money and you spend money as you please but don't come here claiming defol grows more bud in the same amount of time. That's the whole point to this thread.

Could you expand on this thought? You don't want people claiming that defol is more efficient and then in the next sentence concede that is the point of the thread? I'm confused.

Would you prefer this experiment not be done?

Neo you sure are one smart cat. Keep on molesting your plants player!

again reading comprehension, they are saying the plants need recovery time to achieve desired results. Again my preference on this test being done isn't up to me.

the plant needs time for photo tropic response to be effective to but strange thing is plants adapt to be better in their individual environments .......weird huh

Oh god, I've started the analogies!! Efficiency is fine really if you are into that sort of thing, and yes I buy food that ends up getting thrown away. Doesn't everyone?

Would you rather drive a Toyota Prius or a Ferrari 458?? Efficiency, don't believe the hype.

Okay, I understand the plant could need some additional recovery time, but we just discussed how grams per kilowatt hour will be used to judge results so the extra recovery time will be factored into the results, no?

I also understand that the test will go with or without your blessing. But you would prefer it not be done, right? Be honest.

Amazingly I can get better results without recovery time, imagine that? How hard is that to understand? Plants that you don't molest adapt as well, weird huh?

do you even know what phototropic response is?
takes a few more moments then a Google search but not many to understand

May I make a suggestion to the OP.....you may want to change your post fonts or color of your fonts so we can easily follow your experiment without having to read the continued back-and-forth of those that seem to have hijacked your thread.

no I want the test to be done in all honesty, what you have a hard time understanding is they claimed it doesn't require more time. Yes we will factor in the extra time at the end.

Im trying to read what these guys are saying.

It's very clear you can't decipher the difference between topping and other training techniques vs defol. Have fun wasting electricty!

Perhaps what you do not understand about me is that I don't care what they are claiming about recovery time. If they use grams per watt then I will care. I don't consider an experiment to be a waste of electricity. The results will speak or themselves.

Just a few questions for you, anyone actually feel free to chime in? Is there any stickies on defol? Any books that are published showing defol is better than other training/ growing methods? I am very confident that the findings will prove my hypothesis correct, if defol was as popular as you guys make it out to be how come there is no educational information on it? Just sayin....

Why does it bother you so much if I do? Do you really care for me that much? Why can you just not allow one thread on this forum to discuss this technique? There are thousands of other threads for you to choose from? What about the Autoflower section, they use loads more electricity than us!!!! Go and bother them instead!

You were warned that we were going to be talking about defoliation, and the thread is titled Defoliation Experiment so if it offends you that much then just stay away. Simple.

I can't keep up with you guys :-)

it's cool though, I think your discussions make it better. At least we know it's something we're passionate about regardless of your side. And in the end we'll have at least one documentation of cannabis defoliatus. Keep it coming.

And my 9 to 5's been keeping me busy but my weekend starts on Friday so I'll post all the stuff from conversation over the last few days. I think I'm also going to have to reread the whole thread and take notes along the way.

They call me Bunny

I have not seen any research on the topic that has been presented in the context of a controlled experiment. That is why this thread interests me. I share your hypothesis but do not see the need to taunt.

Why do they call you bunny?

I thought you had done the experiment for yourself, now it's just an educated guess? I did ask previously if there was any actual evidence showing that it doesn't work, but it appears that nobody has actually done a side by side experiment to show that it doesn't work either!!!

So if there is no evidence against then how can you be so sure that it doesn't work?

P.S This thread is virtually a sticky, as it has been at the top here since it started!!

Started as Bunnyfather, wife and I had 5 kids in a short time frame. Anyway buddies started calling me it as a joke, 20 years later most of my friends only know me as Bunny.
