- Mike, no need to make so many new threads like this, keep it all in one with the same title/topic. otherwise it becomes clutter and actually a bigger PITA to view and review for info....
If you need to wave a member in, use the "@" in front of their name and it will tag them in Notifications... @little mike

What would have happened with this "bushy plant" if it had not been defoliated? What would be the consequences/outcome?

I similarly have a 'slow' to move into bloom very "bushy plant" like this one before defoliation. I haven't done any defoliation other than clearing ventilation space at the bottom. With good penetrating quantum board lighting from multiple angles, I see no reason to remove fully functional leaves unless there is a reason. [Is my reasoning faulty here?]

@Billjp1 hello Bill,it sounds like you have lots of experience,the reason I defiled her is because I was worried about powder mildew & bugs,also I want the bud sites to not be blocked from light,is it good to not defoil?
