I defoliate the plant around week 3 by removing the bigger fan leaves, and all the lower stuff that’s in major shadow. In general, if you’re unsure defoliate lightly during the flowering stage since you can always take more away but you can’t put leaves back. The plant will stop making new leaves altogether around week 5-6 after the switch to 12/12.
Irrigation schedule:
- At night when the light its off
- Alternated irrigation clear water and water nutrients (250ml each)
- PHITONAT PLUS for foliage to prevents pests (twice a week)
Next steps for this week:
- Plants will slow down in vegetative growth around week 3 or 4 into the flowering stage, and by week 6 they will have stopped growing new leaves altogether, and just be focusing on fattening buds. You need to make sure to leave enough healthy leaves to last until harvest time!
