Defoliation: Hi-Yield Technique?

ive said it once and il say it again every pic of bud from a defpoliated plant on here lacks girth. the buds are far thinner whith exposed stalk. pics like dr fever's (above) show what a weel grown but looks like, you shouldnt see stalk running through the colas etc.

ive had temp issues before when growing in winter, and the cold really fucks up the flower production. cold plants produce bud similar looking to the defoones posted here.

I don't care about how the growing plant looks as long as I get good final results.

Really, it seems you'd be happy just being able to hit 1gpw?

I reported your post for your blatant disrespect to board members. Please grow up..

Whaaaaaaa, ya fucking baby.

I hit 1gpkwh, which is what really matters. If you don't understand that, you sir, are mentally deficient.

You have shown us all your very severe mental deficiency this page proves it some more like I have said before your like a baby having a tantrum it's time to grow up.

You talk of science yet know nothing of it because science is studying and experimenting to determine results the concept escapes you.

The countless people that have done this most keep doing it because it works.

Hey retard,

I've been saying this whole time defoliation is an effective pruning method.

While there are many much superior methods of pruning, defoliation works to modify plant shape no doubt.


But the thread is call "defoliation:high yield technique?"

To answer that, FUCK NO

Go check jackmayoffer's thread about aptus nutrients to see how you get high yields, dudes hitting 2.75 ponds per 1k with kush strains.

That is a high yield technique, now go fuck off, read and learn.

Your saying hes getting that because of nutes? Ima check his thread..

No, because he treats his plants right, blasts them with light, gives co2, has the environment dialed, doesn't defoliate, and in general knows what the fuck he is doing. Fucking 49# off of 20 lights!

Motherfuckers are retarded if they think defoliation is a "high yield" technique.

Useful pruning method in certain circumstances, absolutely, but that's it.


Edit: he does claim the nutes he uses might have set him over the edge, but idk how I feel about that, maybe for him those work but I think raw salts can get the same effect, unless there are pgr's in aptus.

Dude, just skimming that thread and I could positively see the bullshit dripping off this kid.. Environment, sure, it was dialed.. And one could say whatever they wanted online, its a beautiful thing, however, from the retail side of things, its just another new nutrient company claiming to be the best, so where is their base nutrient??

I call bullshit on buddy... I could of course be wrong, but it wasnt some "organic" nutrients, Perfect environments always yield, but holler at my boy bst if wanna see what can be done with simple nutes and a little ingenuity.. He spanks that dude... without co2 and gh nutes... I dont buy into anything I hear anymore...

It is noted that he used caps bennies, something I am a firm believer in...

Yea, I'm happy running jr peters hydro +calnit. Little boron, manganese, zinc boost at flip good to go, now I just need to set my permanent 6k vert up.

ok so per his numbers, 15 plants per 1k light, 2.5# per light, 2.66oz per plant. Yup high yield nutrients, methods, etc thar.

Hey I'm not knocking his grow. Nor am I knocking his GPW which is in reality 1.13gpw. So, is he kickin the shit out of yield?

Should his grow be taken in the same context as this thread?

You know the thread where people have plant limitations, height limitations, wattage limitations?

Who is yielding more? K33f at 1.2gpw or jackmayoffer at 1.13gpw? Just wonderin.

Jackmayoffer at 49# a run lol.

Gpw is irrelevant, and even if it were, I'd bet ten stacks the op wouldn't be able to scale those results up.

You're so pompous its saddening that you feel the need to swing your epeen in an internet forum such as this. Its sad.. you have so much knowledge to share.

just because you can't make this work in your garden doesn't mean others can't.
St3ve what i am trying to get at is skinning a plant in any stage of its growth cycle is a no no leafs are little more important then you think . Now i can agree selective leaf removal can become a advantage you mention i can;t make it work in my garden st3ve i am getting just under 2.5 pounds per 1k light and until i see proven results of someone achieving more in the same allotted time frame i will never look at this crazy idea of defoilating / skinning a plant veg or flower.
Also it appears many do this to control height possibly having smaller rooms why not train plants to achieve lots of top buds rather then worrying about lower bud sites this would be by far more efficient ways of getting more yields per smaller space

Whodare, I deleted a couple of your rude posts and left messages that it wasn't needed. One more from you and you'll be getting a vacation. The nasty rude comments aren't going to continue..... This faggot and f this and f that crap is done.....

It isn't? But you have .73gpw in your sig?

and um, the op is already beating jacks yield.

ok so gpw is irrelevant. So what is relevant? GPSqF?

k33f is getting 39.55 GPSqF,

Jack is getting 35.43 GPSqF.

Hmmm, k33f doesnt use CO2, no AC units, no $1800 nutrient package.

I think whodare just showed some interesting things. Most intelligent adults would probably notice right off the bat the difference in yield isn't measure by how fucking big of a room you got going. Just because someone has 300 plants in scrog yielding 50# doesnt mean he is a hi yielder. Yes, I give credit to jack for having a very nice, successful grow. But who is actually more efficient? The guy that is growing 1.2 gpw, 39.55 GPSqF, without the added costs of CO2, AC, and REALLY expensive nutrient, or Jack?

So what conclusion did I come too? I think Whodare is another one of those youngster knowitalls. Littered with ignorance in it's finest definition.

Oh, lest we forget, k33f is wearing out his fingernails defoliating.

ahh scorpio, damn, He had posted numbers that were being refuted! All that info is gone! WTB, admins that edit out the relevant parts and keep the meat.

Dr.Fever, if you actually used periods at the end of sentences, comas where appropriate, your arguments would at least look more understandable. Above is not a real example, but I edited out to get to the point I want to make. I do however suggest you look back at a few of your posts. You might find some are not even comprehendible.

Now, to my point. Have you even looked once at op's 1st pic in first post? Does it in ANY WAY WHATSOEVER look like he is lacking in top buds? AND he's gaining more in useable LOWER bud!

Now, you're getting UNDER 1.13 gpw.
He's getting 1.2 GPW (and climbing he says but we havent seen the #'s)
Lets for a moment suppose flowering periods and strains are the same. Then his time frame is beating yours.

You will want to make the argument that his veg period is longer. Yet we should not forget, as whodare INSISTS to not accept, for k33f and many others, veg time plays no part in timeline because while ONE flower room is going, the veg room is set in motion and WAITS till flower room is again available. Not everyone has the luxury of 2 flower rooms, short veg, 1 harvest per month. An extremely important aspect of this perpetual that you will want to claim is that your plants will be smaller because of the reduced veg time before going into flower. I will argue that right now so you dont waste your time. You are growing HOW MANY PLANTS per veg? K33f is growing 6 plants in 4x8.

Grow only 6 plants, at 32" squared per plant, 28" high and get 10-12oz per plant, with a total wattage of 1400. Do it using your nondefoliated technique. Show your growing prowess and smash k33f's yield.

I invite you.
 
Doc you claim to have done that but all your pictures are gone from that thread what are you hiding this wouldn't be the first or last time you've been caught making up numbers.
