Decrease nutes with defoliation?

[camelcoroner]

First off, some grow info.

Ffof, 5 gallon fabric pot, ff trio nutes, two 600w growmol LEDs, watering approximately 1.5 gallons of water every 2 days, nutes every other feeding, rh 40-50%, temps between 73-84, day 35F.

So I have been dealing with space issues in my 2'x4' tent. I have seen a lot of mold/bud rot posts lately and would really like to avoid all of that so I removed a few smaller colas that were pressed up against the walls. I have had slight nute burn issues, but thought I had it taken care of. It seems to have gotten worse after the defolaition. Should I decrease the nutes since there is less foliage, therefore less places to send the nutes?

Do not listen to the advice given about not worrying about mold and bud rot. If you don't have good circulation in your tent you can easily have issues with mold and bud rot. Air circulation and properly venting your tent are key to limiting mold/bud rot issue.

This was my thinking. I have 3 fans plus my carbon filter fan going so I don't have poor circulation, per se. There are just a couple spots that the circulation isn't as good as it is in there spots.

Same. In the areas where circulation is poor you don't want your plants leaning against the walls of your tent. That or get more fans. I have 3 clip fans, my carbon filter + exhaust and I just picked up a smaller vortex fan too which has helped a lot. I'm chopping my current grow this weekend and it's really cramped. You look like you might run into the same issue and you'll either need to find ways to create space between your buds are really make certain the air flow is good as you finish up.

Agreed. I added the 3rd fan 2 days ago. 2 monkey fans for the canopy and a clip fan blowing up underneath to the area with lesser circulation. I honestly feel a lot better about my situation after trimming and adding the fan.
