Defoliation is a broadly defined term that describes the removal of leaves from the cannabis plant. This technique is catered to each growers preference and is used for a variety of benefits. Defoliation increases air flow, light penetration, and resin production to achieve improved yields. Removal of leaves can be achieved with scissors or as easy as a pinch of a thumbnail. Defoliation is recommended in all stages of growth. Some growers prefer to defoliate weekly, others every three weeks, some only towards the end of the flowering cycle. Whatever your growing technique and amount of plants you have, proper defoliation is a delicate and time consuming process. Trust Mary Jane’s Friends & Co. to complete your job properly and on time.
