I would not start pruning in the first place. Your plants need their fan leafs. Some ppl cut some of the leafs during the last couple weeks of flowering to get more light on the buds but even that hasn't been proven beneficial.

I think what u are referring to is "topping" and no, one dosent turn into 2 u just chopped the main cola off! Now the two under. The main will develope better, but with mylar and difussed light, u can get the same effect, only better, just let her grow homie, get ur feet wet, then start learning new. Techniques

Prune away my friend, take the bottom of the plant and start clipping!

I'd just tie the main stem over so other branches can develop. IMO actually cutting to prune stresses the plant and slows it down for a while

While ur plant. DOES look good, I can achieve the Same thing without Cutting my plant, and I think its hard for the light to penetrate threw all that bush, but if u tie it dow,LST, u can train the plant to grow a certain way. Then again, growing is all about personal preference. Whatever works for u

I guess, to each there own, id never strip a plant of its leaves like that. What makes u think it makes the buds bigger? If that was the case, nature woould just lose its leaves so the buds could get more light. But. The leaves absorb sun light
