I'm not really educated in the stress department of plants.
I know the basics of stress but not everything so I'm looking for a little guidance.
How many "Tops" or "Sub nodes" as I call em can I remove a day?
I FIM'd my plant which made all the nodes into Colas (or what it seems like anyway) The problem is I have some nodes at the very bottom of the tree that are really stretching for light. I want to remove as many of these as possible before I get into the 3rd week of flower to prevent ultra popcorn nugs.
Basically the picture below points out what I'm talking about, the nodes on the branches that are very low on the plant that light doesn't reach it so it stretches. The picture below is not mine, but you can find my plant in my sig. As you can see its really bushy and only gets bushier everyday so lower lower nodes are super stretching and are just thin branches. How many of these thin branches can I remove a day? I only have overhead light so won't have bottom light as my tent cannot support the heat (Already reaching 85F) I want to remove as many of these as possible before the real flowering begins (At day 3 of flower) and to avoid any hermi.
