When to lollipop

[SamRD]

Some say right before flowering and others 3 weeks into flower. Any consensus on this?

It's best to start early before you even flip. And by the end of week 3 have everything done.

I do it about a week before I intend to flip, so they have enough time to recover. Once I have flipped I tend to leave them be.

I defoliate heavily the day before flip, day 21 of 12/12 and day 42 of 12/12.
