To lollipop or not to pop

[Abdultj]

Hey guys, this is my stunted northern light autoflower from seedsman, it's 8 weeks old, I mistakenly snapped it in half at week 3. I am wondering if I should remove the lower growth, please help with reply, thanks.

Do you have a light on them or using sun light?

Light, Mars hydro ts 1000 to be precise

Do you have a light on them or using sun light?

Then it wouldn't hurt..not getting light down there anyway.

Hey abd , yea you might want to remove some of the lower growth that wont recieve much light , i would just take a bunch of leaf off , more like a trim , " lolipopping" is a much more extreme removal of leaf , stem , and small bud ....
Its a specific way to grow just the main and very top buds , hence the name " lollipop"
Personally , i dont like the technique at all , and never used it , i prefer to let my plants grow in a more natural fasion and using enough light and not overcrowding will produce natural budsites thet produce as much or more end product......

P.S. if find " lolipopping " aesthetically neausating ......
