If you are two weeks into flowering and your plant is healthy I personally would not prune, may cause plant stress which can lead to other issues. The time to do this type of work is prior to flowering but I do know people who do this type of thing when in flower with no serious affects. May delay harvest though.

you can lollipop it up to 21 days i believe. or you can just watch it grow your first grow so you get an idea on whats up.
 
They look good to me, I'm on my second grow 1st grow I use to chop of the BIG Fan leafs never had issues at all, My second lot cut off 80 % leafs following a youtube vid, Doing so have knocked me back 2 to 3 weeks growth ans they turned yellow and curled under i thought I had lost them, And some cut fan leafs other say leave and some have done both and still ended up with same yeild results up to you fella.. Good job so far..

never hurts to trim (personal opinion) ive be told that the leaves give the plant more growth energy but at the same time it takes more energy from the damn thing keep those large fan leaves growing. take it easy tho, trim large leaves a few at a time out of the top middle area, just to shed more light thru, as it grows it will fill back in. trim up until you see frost forming on those leaves then leave it alone...get it..leave..nevermind. lolipop is only cool if you got a few plants and your trying to save space.(< 2 more personal opinions>) if you only got 1 or 2 top it and keep the bottom trimmed instead of the top and watch it bush into a sea of green on 1 plant.

The more you trim the bushier the plant gets. They look good. Also, you want to have your topping/trimming already done before you move from veg to flower. Good luck, BigSteve.

Are you growing in an attic. What are the temps up there? If it goes above 90 for long you are going to have major issues. Peace

Agreed!

If it needs trimming, trim it! It will be just fine.
People get all freaked out about trimming when in flower.
But ill tell you 15yrs growing and I do it all the time up to 3 weeks into flower never seen a plant stress out like the grower around here do when you mention trimming a flowering plant.
It will be just fine if you trim it I have cut 2/3 the growth off in early flower never had it cause any negative reactions from the plant.

Thanks for all the different views on things guys ..... Will have another look tonight and if there are 1 or 2 leaves I think could be in the way I might get rid of them but I you have said 1 or 2 don't go mental :)

IMG_1191.jpgIMG_1192.jpgim just sayin... its matter of choice by the grower. I however would never try this but if I did it would be on 400whps. few days before 1 month and I would have trimmed her up just this morn. :lol:. I will say this. I have noticed in pic's like these from the internet.:lol: have buds forming larger at the main branch with the large fan leaves still on than where they were clipped. over all.. balance it out and don't go crazy and it just keeps it rollin'.
