Nice. This was my first attempt a such things and had no idea what I was doing, just what I wanted to happen. I have to strip a bunch this weekend again but have to be much more careful and selective. There is tons of space in the bottom now for air, just cannot get any air though the canopy. I was really quite amazed they didn't show any signs of shock. Your plants look great man.see but that is beautiful and perfect...
I stripped the bottoms of my girls too and just flipped so in another 2 weeks i will have a canopy that looks just like yours but nice empty space under it.

This is the most exciting and boring part of the grow. Dont really do anything other than water them but this is when all the beautiful shit happens.
Healthy plants in veg you can beat the living shit out of them and remove 50% of their plant matter and they still just thrive. I bent the shit out of the stems to spread them out weeks before i put the trellis in.I was really quite amazed they didn't show any signs of shock
I had the plant from hell in my tent and it just would not finish. Got cooked when I was on vacation while my son was taking care of it. I waited and waited but it would not stop throwing new foxtails. I finally took it down but my new plants did not get the care they should have until than. I did pull just over a pound of that one plant and decided to turn the whole dam thing into rosin. With my little press it will take a while, lol. I flipped these current ones to flower 2 or 3 days after my Edward Scissor hands impression. They all seem quite healthy except the front left one which is the runt. She drinks less than all the others so I keep a very close eye on her. She has been a runt since the seed sprouted. The back left one sprung up like a beanstalk. The 2 on the left are Shiva Skunk and the 2 on the right are Maui Waui. I feel you are totally right though, if they are healthy to begin with you can kick the hell out of them and in veg they will come back. Life is an amazing thing.Healthy plants in veg you can beat the living shit out of them and remove 50% of their plant matter and they still just thrive.
