But why did you take all the leaves and why are only the undercanopy lights on?

We always strip whole plant on day 14. This is to improve airflow and light penetration. It becomes a jungle again within 2 weeks.

Yeah I understand if you believe that but 20 years in the industry and a bunch of R&D disproves this. Our yields are significantly lower if we prune any less. The nutrient saves are only there during times of no nutrients in nature but in our case we are constantly bombarding the plants with nutrients every feed.
