So looking at my remaining plants, the heavy defoliation I did on one plant did one thing for sure. It made all of the buds larfy. I know a lot of people defoliate with good results and I may have done it too late but that whole plant is going in the hash/cannabutter pile. I do defoliate but only leaves blocking light from bud sites and usually only a few at a time. My thought is the massive defoliation stressed the plant but it also decreased the area available for photosynthesis.
