Where did you do this research?

He's not comparing them he's just seeing who recommends what.

Good stuff.
Your reasoning should have been AN is a bunch of douchebags who know how to make nice labels and GH is tried and proven.

Dense canopy = key to yields.
I'm going to try to foliage feed and trim some of the fan leaves to try to improve yields a bit next time around.

AN has had bad batches of stuff in the past. I've heard of two separate batches of Connie killing plants.

Inside of which week are you trimming fan leaves?
I understand that you normally don't want to remove fan leaves, just wondering when you do it.
This isn't true everything green is photosynthetic except for woodier stems/branches, once you've got a large plant photosynthesis can be unhindered with some fan leaves removed. I usually remove a decent amount of fan leaves before the bulking weeks on a 9 week strain this would be end of week 6 on... typically speaking. This is to allow light to the lower areas of the plant which isn't necessary with all strains as some have minimal branching and narrow leaves that don't block much light.
This makes for less popcorn and the most marketable buds possible. I also try to take off the bottom most branches (2-3 of them) to develop higher branches or the main cola more.
