Should I remove these lower buds...

Keep your lower bud sites, run them for concentrates or do a double harvest.

Edit: on that size plant, remove nothing. You'll want all the bud it can put out, air bud or not.

So this is my 3rd grow and the first one to not be a complete fuck up (please be nice :blsmoke:).

I'm 5 weeks into flowering using a 500w CFL and a LED side light. I've used Happy Frog for soil in a 3 gallon pot and followed the FF feeding schedule to the letter. She may not be much to you pros, but I am proud as hell.


Anyway, I have read that it's better to remove a lot of the lower bud sites as they never amount to much and take energy away from the main colas. As you can see, I topped her with some LSTing to maximize my light penetration. Looking at these photos, should I remove some of the lower sites to allow the tops to really take off?

I'd also like to know what you experts think about my first real grow. How I am doing? Is she looking good for her age and light source?


Thanks

Looks pretty good man !
