Spent a good bit of time today lollipopping. But it's worth it in the end. Spending 2-3 hours today will save at least 8-12 hours of cutting and trimming in the end. Also, a lot less popcorn buds.
Not sure what the general consensus on this forum about butchering the plants like this, but I've never had an issue, except for when I once trimmed too high, and had too big of a main cola, causing an issue with mold inside the colas. Sucked and laid waste to a whole crop!
Here's the pics, enjoy!

i have two phenotypes of the freedom haze. think i might have 4-5 hermies, from one phenotype.
its okay though. more space for the other girls. glad it's from the pheno i was getting rid of anyways.
should i dare to pollinate some of the NLxBB? breeding for looks is easy. breeding for the type of high, which is why i have these two strains, is a lot harder.

I also would like to see your water cooled set up. Is it similar to this?

Yup. What KBs of chiller? Would like a little more detail. My grow isn't big enough but, I think that set up rocks.

the lights, and the dehumidifier too. i have three ice boxes being chilled by converted water chillers in the next room.
you can say that the room is being cooled too, in this manner, as i have a controller/sensor from hydro innovations for temperature.

lol, i'm using an expensive chiller i ordered, i forget which, but it was expensive. it is also the weakest one of the bunch.
the second one i'm using is a 5k dehumidifier i converted. it's on 24/7 until winter.
the third is a converted window unit. i have this on a temperature switch. it's 8k an usually only comes on when the lights come on.

yup, that's the vid that sold me. chiller setups can vary. if i had the money, i would get an external one that looks like a home air conditioner unit

Cooling sure from sealed hoods like that is complete Bullshit.
