Very nice. Did you ever do any pruning of the lower branches during flowering?
I read a thread about lollipopping when I was getting worried about my canopy height and experimented a bit with 2 plants basically pruning the bottom 1/4 to 1/3 of them. I've noticed that those 2 plants have much larger main colas than the other 2. In hindsight I would have done the same type of pruning a week before I switched them but even into the 3rd week of flowering (when I did this pruning) the 2 ladies that I did this with are by far the best plants based on overall cola size.

Yeah I started lolipopping last week of veg and continued into flowering. 5 out of 6 have no lower leaves up to about 6 to 8 inches. The one that I didn't do was/ is a runt.
I find that if you don't prune those lower leaves they dry up and fall off anyway.
But really the big change happened when I cleared out a lot of the upper fan leaves giving a ton more light to the rest of the lower plants.
So anxious but so long to go still!

Looks like i'm going to get a good amount out of this.
Good thing because it stunk real bad! lol won't be doing that again for a while.
Had to shower, change, febreeze the whole area to get rid of the smell.... and yet I can still smell it... Better be worth it

Very nice man. Have you started inspecting the trichs yet?
I got one of those 30x stamp magnifiers and it's like threading a needle to get the proper distance to see any trichomes lol.
I'm like 2-3 weeks away as well I think. 1 of my plants may need to be chopped a week before the other 3 but we'll see.

I have a 40X jewelers loupe and I find it quite easy to use.
The trichs are awesome under the magnifier! They look like little clear liquid mushrooms right now
I have soo many on some you can see em without the magnifier!
I also have one that seems to be reaching maturity faster than the others..
Oh I found out what those dehumidifying tabs are called; DampRid.
But I gave in and put my a/c in today. It is only 9C out but raining everyday and my humidity is still too high! Luckily my a/c has dehumidify mode on it.
outside H is 87% inside now is 56% it was up too 72% this morning!

I got a couple of pics with the magnifier in front of the camera. I can zoom in closer with my eye than I can with the camera but still a cool view! One reg pic you can see the crystals with the naked eye.
