Question

Ok so heres what i was thinking. If u were to remove all of the lower buds (u know the small ones around the stem) and leave just the flowers on the heads of the plants do u think the top buds would grow bigger without all of the lower buds using up there needed energy. Just a thought.

All advice and comments are welcomed and appreciated.

any trimming of shoots and bud sites should be done before you turn to flower. as far as the theory of less bud sites = bigger buds. ive found this to be true for me, but there are very experienced growers out there that can max out a plants potential no matter how many shoots and bud sites there are. one thing im sure of is cuttiing after you flip to flower will hinder your bud production not advance it. no matter what.

hmmm. lollipoping?

ya! i kno ppl ( and the guys @greenhouse) that do it 2-3 weeks into flowering .. thats what i do .. it really does help the bigger ones!

not to mention the air flow is much better!
