Looking very nice and healthy Benjic93. As far as defoliation and stripping the bottom off, you can and people do but I like to get things before I flip. Just because the stress can slow the plant down for a few days while they recover.Benjic93 wrote: ↑Fri Nov 22, 2019 7:56 pmSup guys, quick update and question...
2 weeks into flipping now.. is it too late to defoliate? Theres a few plants covering other plants but I dint know whether to just leaf tuck? They all seem to be doing fine, unfortunately not all the same height and is it too late to chop of the lower nodes? I dont mind keeping them on though.
Shit pictures. Hate hps for taking photos.

If you've got brances that are bolting above the rest, you can also soften the stem by squezing and rolling between your fingers and fold it over. It slows that branch down and redirects the flow of auxins to the other branches. The fold will repair itself within 24-4i hours and the top will resume normal growth and the other branches will start to catch up. I've been using this technique to keep a level canopy and it seems to be working well.
