Roflmao I had a good laugh there thx. I see I'm not the only one with helpful friends. That sounds like it's over trimed with out looking at photo's. I don't EVER trim more than 15 % of the plants mass at one time, I heard that 25 % is the max without harming her.All the best with that.:cool:

That is what happens when you let someone who now's nothing about growing give you advise or what not....Has he ever grown before? does he know anything about growing....or it more of a stoners attitude...."dude cut all these leaves it will help the buds".....

Hey growing is not easy....nothing about it is easy....is it fun...yes....easy no.

Well hope they revcover

You just let my punk ass cousin trim all the goodness away. He believes all the leaves should be stripped 2 weeks into flower. Of coarse he don't tell you all he ever did was an ebbandflow with 50 plants under 1 foot. You know bud on a stick. Each plant only had 3 or 4 sets of leaves.

Here's the real story. The leaves on your plants are the muscles. Without these there is no major photosenthesis going on. So how do you think your nice plants are going to do ? Not so well. Your friend just cut you out of half of what you were going to get at harvest. The last two weeks are when they pick up size and weight and how are they going to do that now.

Next time you see your friend strip about 90 percent of his muscles off and see if he can walk to the doors.

People please think about things. Stripping leaves is not the way it happens in nature so why would it be here ?
