pruning, defoliating and topping are very important prior to flip.
Remove all suckers from the bottom 12 inches of the plant. Defoliate 10-12 of the largest leaf sets directly blocking bud sites, and yes, top 80% of the very very tip.
defoliate is about every 3-4 days, prune is once prior to flip and once after, and top is 5-6 days prior to flip.
@ around 25 days:
They are going to be defoliated 1 more time, (tomorrow), ill post after pics as well.
Thank you so much for teaching this instead of lion's tail. This is probably the best thread I've seen on thcf.
Is there any chance you could make a thread on proper plating and potting tech as well?
Its not a technique, its a fuck up. A very common one even among many of the more seasoned growers I know.
Yeah I saw your plants, they looked great. Basically lions tailing would be the example on the left. Many people do this in hopes to focus the plant's energy on bud growth, but it actually makes your plant shoot off a million suckers and weakens the structure of your branches by throwing the balance off. A kola laying on the ground due to breakage a week before harvest isnt better yeilds.
