Will it severely decrease the amount of weed produced? And just leave a few really nice nugs?

It wont produce any larf or popcorn buds, just fat colas. So it depends on what you do with your flower. If its just for smoke then you only want the best. If its for concentrates, etc then popcorn buds arent to bad.

All that does is reduce your yield. I don't pinch anything and get huge cola's and all the popcorn that I use to make dry ice hash. The cola's will get just as big if you leave the smaller buds. All these techniques are just stoner methods that are unnecessary to achieve quality yields of good bud. Leave the damn plant alone and let it grow. Some ridiculous method some stoner came up with is a waste of time. But some people can't leave their plants alone and have to keep mucking with them.

Yeah I planned on making lots of edibles but I guess I’ll just have to do that next grow

Key word is “before you flip” as you can see he’s removed all flowering sites well into flower.

Well that's the problem with all these "techniques". They're like fishing stories. They evolve over time and what someone is doing may or may not be the same as what the creator had done. But I'm not a believer in this method. It will definitely reduce yield.

what do I do in the future. How do I grow from it. I don’t want a lot of popcorn, but I mainly want to maximize yield for edibles. I’m fine with it as long as it’s decent quality overall. Should I let the little stems grow and just not touch em? Or do it in the middle of veg and then let it flow

I pull more off a single plant then you do out of your little tent dude. Sometimes you need to keep YOUR opinions to yourself because you sound like a idiot. Keep your larf, I’ll keep my whole plant into jars.
Cool story though bro.

I could care less how much you pull out of a space bigger than mine. I have no need for any more weed than I can grow in a 4 x 4 tent so why would I care about the size of my tent? You show a plant in a space bigger than mine. So what? I grow plants just as and nicer than the plant you're showing. What point are you trying to make? And the technique I was referring to was the removal of all bud sites which you obviously didn't do.
I really don't see any point to your reply to my post other than to show off a healthy looking plant that many of us could easily grow and do. If you're trying to make me feel silly or inferior you've failed miserably.
