Curse of the hulk

Looking good :ok_hand:
The slow stages are always a little disappointing, but worth every second

Here’s a pic of both of them trimmed now. It’s not perfect, but I spent well over an hour doing it. I don’t think it can really get that much better than it is right now.

Looking good I’d of stripped all the large fans top to bottom,making it look like bud on a stick!

Sorry never thought they were autos

Depends on if it’s a auto or not. If it’s a auto don’t do this. Buds don’t photosynthesize efficiently. The fan leaves are what feed the buds. Just tuck them away to let more airflow in if auto. If it’s a photo anything you like goes, but just remember that the leaves are what drive photosynthesis not sugar leaves or the buds. If you trim them all at this stage you’re likely to waste your time watching nothing happen until harvest.

It looks pretty when bare, but I really wouldn’t recommend this if it’s still growing. That suggestion is likely to kill your plant too soon before they even work on the final budding stage.

Its not an auto. Its just feminized photo period. I do harves a question for all though. Is this PM on the leaves or just a residue from foliar spraying a few weeks back?


If it is PM, what do I do. I don’t really want to spray anymore hydrogen peroxide. The substance seems like residue as I can rub and flake it off. Thanks for any answers.

They aren’t autos. I mistakenly thought they were, but are just from feminized photo period seeds

I’d strip any leaf that wasn’t totally green then basic stick on a bud leave suger leaf and healthy fans turf the rest

They’ll still continue to grow and flower without close to no leaves? I thought they needed leaves for photosynthesis? But if the consensus is to strip them then I will. I just didn’t know you could do that is all.

What stage are you at for flower time they look close ? I stripe my plants almost bare 3rd week of flower then again around week 6 if they are bushy ! I’ve had bad mistakes and had almost all fans fall off or die late in flower with successful buds at the finish !

Be selective any yellow or deformed crispy blotchy leaf get rid of it !

I second that. If you’re on the ball at least remove all sick leaves.

Others can provide more details on what I said. @ReikoX was one in particular who’s tried to drill it in my head, but I’m spacing on the specifics

Ok process underway
 I started but have to go pick up my girl. Man is that a delicious smelling plant. It’s like fruity diesel. I love it and had to use a cotton ball with acetone again.

You got this :muscle::facepunch::+1:
She’ll reward you with all the energy left going to the buds. Not 100% of the time, but near enough that it’s a superstition without much reason behind it before we understood why it happened.

Looking good now we can see what gems she’s been hiding ! That bottom leaf can go and any lower sites that are just starting to bud ,due to leaf blockage as they’re useless and take from the plant,watch for bud rot those colas are pretty tight to each other !

I’d only remove the ones that are 50% or more effected. The leaves will still work as they normally would but obviously not as efficiently. I know the burning on the tips look unsightly but they still serve their purpose and will still take the light and feed your plants.

So noone answered my first question of whether it is PM on the plants or just residue from foliar spraying a few weeks back. Here are the photos again. Here are the photos again.

It looks like residuals from foliar


Is it spreading?

Pm would take the whole leaf
 that looks like what the pores in the leaves didn’t take and dried in the veins

No I don’t believe so, but to be safe I removed the leaves that looked like that
 so to my other BB, I didn’t do what I did to the first one. I just removed half dead leaves, and bottom tiny buds along with the leaves with white stuff on them. I am pretty much done. Gonna give it a second look tomorrow
 here’s a look at both of them.

Looks good from here
 be careful with widescale defoliation in mid to late flower, undue stress causes nasty things
but they look like they’ll finish up nice

You aren’t foliar feeding them now are you?
