No need to defoliate @Mañ'O'Green.Good Morfnoevight All! EO.
Just pressed some 2 year old Lil' MOBStar I am so high......... I am growing it again soon. Waiting on germination now.
To defoliate or not? I have not witnessed a better grow style than @420autoflower's it involves a lot of training and defoliation, it is masterful. It is way too much work for me. I am lazy and in that regard the plant will for the most part grow itself quite satisfactorily. I top above the forth or fifth node and only defoliate late in flower to improve air flow. I have a 4'x6'x7.5' grow space and average 2-2.5 pounds off 6 plants. I am pleased as punch with that yield and it keeps me knee deep in meds.

You always grow fantastic plants with your system and they get plenty of light/airflow with the way you spread them out in your tray.
Looking good @Mossy!View attachment 1703022

Later... Well plucked.........
Testing @420autoflower theory that taking the leaves means all the energy goes into bud production....
I could see it being Really beneficial in your grow box now........but....I can't see how you would be able to get at them to do it......
I Wish I had the photo from the weekend I plucked them..... they looked like the last chicken left at Sainsbury's............but I must have deleted it......
Love your pup!

I've seen the argument/rationale for both. I've gotten extremely lazy as of late. Have been plucking 4-6 a day off each plant, but obviously still a jungle. Usually pluck a lot more off the photos than autos. Will go a little heavier this evening. Humidity is a big challenge where I am, so it will help tremendously!
Thanks again and hope you are having an enjoyable evening!

Well this is where as @Bruce Campbell recently stated it is the Law of Diminishing returns at play here. My unwillingness to put in all of that time and work is a diminishing factor but I think space is my greatest limiting factor besides the 6 plant limit here. I could easily fill my 4'x6'x7.5' space with a single photo plant using a manifold technique. I would expect a 4# harvest after 150 days. or I can grow 6 autos in 75 - 90 days and get 2.5# so if you do the time-weight math it is about the same in ounce per month. Autos is the easier and hence my path. As far as quality is concerned I am perfectly BAKED.
I personally believe that the plant knows how to grow what it needs better than I do. It spent energy growing that leaf for a reason. So I don't take leaves off the plant. I do harvest leaves when making salves - my salves work well. I also break the apical dominance by topping. I do this to keep the plant shorter and bushier for the indoor environment.
where am I now?
Guess duders got some fresh ink.
Now I can put my new top on
