First time grower. Just wondering if I need to Lollipop this plant and if so, how to correctly do it. The plant seems to be super healthy but I’m wondering if I need to thin out some thing so the plant will focus more energy on the top of the plant. Thanks! Attached are pictures.

You need those leaves for the plant to grow.

No clue. I’m growing this from a seed I found. I have no clue about the genetics or strain.

Okay probably not then. What light have you got it under and what light cycle?
I wouldn't take any leaves off the plant is fairly small and looks like it's flowering. You generally only want to take leaves off when the light can't penetrate the canopy and get to them (buds that don't receive light).

If you're new enough at growing you're asking this question, leave them alone.

I would start with a couple cuts to open it up a little and watch it. You can work your way into lollipoping over time.
Personally I don't always do it, sometimes I don't feel like it needs it. If your plant was my plant I would make a couple cuts on the inner parts to open it up and then I'd wait. Depending on what happens that might be all the cuts I'd make.

**Edit; I also reveg plants sometimes for mother's so this causes additional consideration.

There are multiple examples here now on lollipopping. It's just removing lower growth.

Love the pics guys or gals. Keep the interior space around your stalk breathing is the only mandate here. And every plant will "pop" different. LOL.

Looking good if beginner. I'd suggest minimal messin until more familiar. Peace.
