    Should I get rid of the foliage in the canopy do you think what leaves does it need at this stage are the leaves that grow in the bud enough or does it still need the fans, the net just seems to rammed lower down

  2. "depends on what air movement you got up there, if it's good/strong air movement you should be ok,
    fans are like solar panels, they struggle without them,

    id remove all the lower leaves to allow better air movement though
    pull away a good handful every day - that won't shock/stall the plant

    too many leaves stops air movement - that raises the rH% and unfortunately that can cause mold/rot"

    There is plenty of movement intake is through solid duct with holes in under the canopy the there is 2 x 16" escalating fans in there, it was up to 33c in there last night/this morning on lights on that's warmest so far this weather is madness

    looks bangi in there matey seems little late in flower to go real heavy on removing them. i would just pull some out every other day that maybe be covering or all over bud site areas,

    ideally you shuda stripped /lollipopped the bottom 3rd or quarter after by week 3.
