Cheers Buzzer I really appreciate it.. I'm of two minds about cleaning up though.. On one hand I want to keep all bud sites even all the popcorn but on the other I would like to try a sort of lollipoping to push those units to the larger buds.???? Also most of my main cola site haven't started pistols yet is this normal she's had a few issues which hasn't helped..? I think she's still stretching posibly..Yep..cleanup is needed..LOL

Not sure about your plant in flower, but I for one pluck off the stuff that can't ever amount to much. (mostly because it gets in the way) If I am after seeds, I would keep a lower branch or two to pollinate. Don't forget that the plant will continue to branch out and make even more "stuff" inside and below..it takes constant care to cultivate and not just grow. I have no idea if it does anything to increase potency/yield above, but others here will chime in.Cheers Buzzer I really appreciate it.. I'm of two minds about cleaning up though..

Yeah for some reason they've always had a curl I think it may be heat related as I have it in a small greenhouse with plastic walls for discretion as my neighbours don't appreciate my green thumb.Not sure about your plant in flower, but I for one pluck off the stuff that can't ever amount to much.

There seems to be some wacky stuff happening to your leaf tips??????
Is scissors a bad idea cause when I trim her I've been using bonzi shears, I've defoliated partially 3 times to get more light through and she keep coming back nice and bushy. I'll have to get a small solar fan for her today knock down some more of the heat.You will definitely need some air moving in there..
At the very least, I would pinch off these (with your fingernails..not a scissor)........NOT the stems plz..just the larf growing on them..LOL

I would have taken them before she flowered, but no harm done..just more work.
For some obscure reason, I hear that it is easier on the plant pinching with your thumb and forefinger. You also don't run the risk of accidental dismemberment! Now that I see you nice plant, she is way to bushy and someone else here can help you open her up better than I could (above my pay grade..Haha)..There appears lots to be done, and don't forget that you will need to exchange the air in that enclosure a few times a minute..Plants need fresh air, and there needs to be a way to get rid of humidity etc. If you tie back that main cola (and/or supercrop) the others will try to catch up making it more even. Different schools of thought, but you saw my outdoor plants, shaped more like a tall bush than the traditional Christmas tree.Is scissors a bad idea cause when I trim her I've been using bonzi shears, I've defoliated partially 3 times to get more light through and she keep coming back nice and bushy.

Yeah awesome I tied back 5 other main stems but that big one had no where to go so I left her go. Im so weary about super croping I've read all about but never tried it just don't want to hurt her. Only way to learn though is to do..For some obscure reason, I hear that it is easier on the plant pinching with your thumb and forefinger. You also don't run the risk of accidental dismemberment!

Your call of course..I would not want to be the cause of something bad..Just an fyi..I have topped mine about a week before I saw signs of flower with no apparent problem. As they age, Super cropping is harder due to woody stems..I have actually taken pliers to my indoor plants when needed..Yeah awesome I tied back 5 other main stems but that big one had no where to go so I left her go.

Pinching leaves is fine, just a matter of preference. Pinching bud sites is not a good idea, she will try to grow another bud there, taking energy away from the colas.Cheers Buzzer I really appreciate it.. I'm of two minds about cleaning up though..

Could you explain what you said a little bit more in depth? By larf, do you mean the little leaves and flower sites? I had some small stems like pictured, with two or so bud sites, and I snapped that stuff off. I thought it was so small, it wouldn't amount to anything. Was I wrong?You will definitely need some air moving in there..

If it were alien there'd be a tiny space ship parked not too far away..Hey brothers, I have a bug I have never seen on plants around here in VT before....thinking it's a thrip but would like someone's opinion....My cousin thinks it's alien!View attachment 897433
Funny you guys are talking about this I just cleaned my plants up a bit pulled most of the small sucker branches or whatever ya wanna call them hoping it would speed up the process but it looks like me and you are in the same boat with some slow girls. Also just did a heavy flush so I can really start hitting them hard with nutes. please give me some criticism haha I need to learn as much as possible.Cheers Buzzer I really appreciate it..
