Feb05 was harvest day. I cut her completely down. While cutting the plant down I realized that a lot of energy were waisted on side branches which never got to see the light because other shoots were covering them. My next grow I am going to make about 16-20 main shoots(just like on this grow) but this time lolipop them. So instead of letting those shoots grow long and thin lower branches, I will redirect it's energy towards upper part, I believe that should make bigger and more dense buds. It's just an idea, but at least this is how I used to make tomatoes bigger in my mothers garden.
Also I came across one problem while trimming this plant. I got confused which parts should be trimmed. Fan leaves along the stem which does not even crystals on leaves are no question. But leaves comming out of bud, those small and covered in crystals. Do they also have to be trimmed? I saw on internet some examples, most of them were about trimming indica plants and with poor quality, so was quite difficult to get the understanding, anyhow, what I did I just trimmed edges of those small leaves, I just left the rest to dry. This plant is only for personal use, so I am not going to blame myself for bad quality or so. Probably I will find out those things eventually. Here is a pic of undried harvest
