Four lovely ladies. Deathstar. It's a Sensi Star x Sour Diesel. Flowered the original mother last run. So tasty and super buzz. Have another group of clones establishing now. Gonna keep this one going for a few cycles. Strong plant and great dense yields.I’m using 20 litre fabric pots with temps 27 degrees and humidity 50% atm just switched over to 12/12 yesterday so going to keep it under 50% from now on your ladies looking nice man :) what is it your growing ?

This is my first indoor grow I’ve grown a lot outdoors and always had good results but wanted to go for 2 600w hps lamps in a 2.4mx1.2mx2.0m tent I got a big exhaust fan with a carbon filter and a inlet fan to bring fresh air in I have got a oscillating 16” fan and 2 6” clip on fans in 2 corners growing in bat mix soil using plant magic liquid nutrients feeding every other water and got my water / feed ph at 6.3- 6.5 watering every other day here’s a pic of my exhaust fanI'm a standard Yank and will have to do the conversions, but your numbers are probably good. How's your ventilation? Not sure what the preferred humidity should be, but lower during flower is a must to steer clear of bud rot. Pretty sure anywhere below 50% is good. Have you grown many times? Made it thru complete runs start to finish? I don't want to ramble about anything you already know. Lol. And I am no expert. Just decent experience.
I’m growing shinning silver haze ( royal queen seeds )Seems like you have things under control. I may have missed it in the thread, but what are you growing right now?
We have a Silver Haze in this area that is very nice. Keep posting the success sir.I’m growing shinning silver haze ( royal queen seeds )
Thanks a lot I’ve been Amsterdam a few times and the silver haze out there was amazing that’s why I wanted to do some silver hazeWe have a Silver Haze in this area that is very nice. Keep posting the success sir.
Today’s pic of the ladies took some of the bottom branches off as they are not getting any lightWe have a Silver Haze in this area that is very nice. Keep posting the success sir.
How much should I take off all the lower branches that are getting no light ( not hitting the top of the net ) like no where near and I’m not taking clones as next lot are going to be different and I got no where to put clones I don’t want to strip the ladies too bare underneath If you get what I meanStill looking healthy. Prune for yield. I was a little hesitant my first larger run in this tent and didn't trim out the under carriage very much. In addition to the excessive LST, this resulted in too many bud sites. Ultimately, limiting the end product. Tops were average and inner plant full of underdeveloped and fluffy buds. Sucked the energy from all the good spots. If you come across a branch that looks nice but seems it will not get the light it needs, take it for a clone. This is a good time to grab a few for clones if you're doing that. Here's a shot up the skirts of these girls. Sexy legs.
To begin,..I take no more than 20% at a single (been safe that way for a long tome)session..works for me..I admit, I walk a line between full lollipoping and leaving some stuff below to be consumed by the plant later on if needed. It is common for plants to show deficiencies late in life, and this leaves a lil xtra for them..Everything I've read says to basically take the lower third of the leaves and little branches that aren't gonna pop thru the canopy. Do a little research on lollipopping and pruning a scrog grow. Youtube has a ton of quality tutorials. First couple weeks of flower they'll stretch and you'll continue to weed out any branches that just don't seem like they're getting anywhere and will damper the development of the rest of the bud sites. I try not to prune much after 4 weeks. Just continue to remove yellowing fan leaves and any large fan leaves shading the lower bud sites. You can also tuck the larger leaves in a fashion that allows the light thru. I think the hardest thing to overcome when pruning is the idea that you're taking too much or doing something wrong. Negative. Pruning unnecessary growth will only direct more energy to the wanted growth. Start minimal and take your time.
I think what I’ll do is just take leafs and shoots that don’t get no light at the bottom of the plant and lollipop it all but not excessively just to be on the safe side and when should all this trimming / lollipoping be done I’m currently day 3 into flowering and it’s a 10/11 week flowering plant ?Everything I've read says to basically take the lower third of the leaves and little branches that aren't gonna pop thru the canopy.

My understanding has always been, less stress, happier plant. Happier plant, efficient bud production. In my research, (I'll say this time to time cuz I've read a lot, but I don't claim to be an expert.) Keep finish pruning to early flowering. Later in flowering may stunt bud development due to stress. Makes sense to me. I let them freak out a little and stretch a bit and do my pruning after about two weeks. That way I can see the selective growth that has ascended to the upper canopy. You can then see where the lower canopy will or won't get the rays of light. Just after stretch, but don't hesitate. They need to heal up and settle down to really fatten up those nugs in the next few weeks.I think what I’ll do is just take leafs and shoots that don’t get no light at the bottom of the plant and lollipop it all but not excessively just to be on the safe side and when should all this trimming / lollipoping be done I’m currently day 3 into flowering and it’s a 10/11 week flowering plant ?
Some pics of the ladies lights off and on and took some of the leaves off that don’t get no light at the bottom of the plants what you thinkSomething else to keep in mind. The stretch is gonna give you an opportunity to train some of the taller shoots in whatever direction it will benefit the neighboring lower colas to find some light. Spread that canopy out throughout the net.

Again, this is a very controversial subject, with tons of opinions on both sides.
Yeah think that’s what I shall do and same here can’t wait to see them buds develop :)Looks good to me. Let it ride now. Be patient. Can't wait to see em develop.
Don't be scared to take a few more of those little shoots off those lowest branches. They might be questionable but making thru to the upper canopy. If it doesn't seem like they'll amount to much, take em out. More energy and nutes to the larger buds. Plus less trimming of little popcorn buds. Either way looking good.Yeah think that’s what I shall do and same here can’t wait to see them buds develop :)
