Man, you just said it yourself, I put it in red.

How do you know what amount of leaves are required for "good photosynthesis." Since you're new, I'll tell you, ALL of them!

Also, the leaves are what need the light, more than the bud sites! The plant put those leaves there to absorb the light, to provide energy for the buds to grow. Less energy, less buds.

Have you heard of Dr Allison Justice? Read her paper on hard pruning, she too assumed what you do then she actually did a controlled experiment and found that shaded leaves use more energy than they generate from photosynthesis. Not to mention stiffle air flow.

Its also common practice for fruit growers to prune nodes and redirect the trees energy to remaining sites leading to larger sweeter fruits.

A large scale grower I know personally hard prunes twice, once after flip and then again a couple weeks later. He yields over 3 a light with strains like Meatbreath and like the other poster said no larf. I do the same now and the better air flow, lack of mold and lack of larf are good enough reasons for me.

I wonder how dark the level of shade has to be in order to make the flip between net producing more or net consuming more.

Yeah that’s what I’m thinking they just started flush so hopefully end of the week they look more ready. Leaves need to be more dead looking too. But I like to harvest when 20% trichomes turn amber.

I wish I found out about the cobs in time this is my first run with led since ufos which the ufos were a waste in my opinion.

Lots of quality led's these days.
Cobs, quantum boards, strips etc.
They are really affordable as well now.
When i got my cob based Timbers like 4 years ago 2 fixtures cost me 1k.

I cut one down the other day. Herm'd bad on me. It looked super healthy and not stressed. I'll have to check for light leaks. My tents are covered in gorilla tape, lol. My first hermie from Heisen out of 6 or 7 plants. He did say the adub isn't the most stable
