Everything is looking awesome!!! Did you lollipop at all? I
Yikes... I didn’t but I thought I wasn’t supposed to until day 21/25 of flower.
I’ve did the LST thing before, I topped them ( except the tall one I guess I missed) I honestly don’t know what I’m going to do. What do you think ? Thank you btw.

Well I would defoliate one and Lolipop one to see how your plants react to the environment, before I flipped to flower I lolipopped mine a bit but I also took clones, so it was easy for me to clean up the bottoms, I’ve read that defoliating onday 20 increases your yield tremendously, but I have not tried it yet

Maybe I’ll give it a try, I was debating what to do about them, wouldn’t love to increase the yield without messing anything up.

Yeah try it on two different plants just Incase , my grow is a mix of this and that, not everything will work for everyone so I’m trying to figure out what works for me
I’m going to clean up the bottoms and maybe I’ll pull a few fan leaves but that’s about it. I don’t wanna get ahead of myself like I’m an advanced grower.

TBH i've never seen any adverse effects from pulling off lower fan leaves. by the time I remove them they come off so easy they weren't doing much anyways other than blocking light. I experimented last grow and left everything on, and all it did was clutter. Go ahead and snip snip, but dont go too overboard.

Good stuff. I’m going to give it a try this evening, I’ll be sure not to overdo it.

I completely understand, for me I’m using this as a learning experience, my next grow I’m going to try the 3 a light method just to see what’s up, I have a buddy who swears by it and will give me the book to try out, he yields about 3.5 per 1000 watt, and it’s fire, he works with a couple other guys in a legal facility so they always try things, he try’s to get me to do some weird sounding things to my plants that I’m skeptical of but I’m willing to try them down the road, told me to use epsom salt , aloe juice , and molasses when I feed and so far so good, no complaints

Aloe juice?? What!!! Wow!! It’s always fun to try new things out . I’m going to stay in a safe zone so I don’t ruin the winter stash.
I read a lot and find the different teas, techniques, and grow styles interesting. I’ll figure out what works best for me and stick with it. Try and not complicate things much so I don’t confuse myself lol.
