Larfy pot

So i'm kind of new here and I'm not sure where to ask this question so I'm thinking here is as good a place as any
i just grew a bunch of pot and a lot of it came out looking great but there was a LOT that didnt the stuff that didnt was ??(larfy)?? ya know what I mean real airy the main colas were great most of the airy stuff was from down low on the plants is there a time to trim that lower stuff off so all the energy goes to the bigger buds I don't want to shock the plants but my 4x8 table got looking like a jungle with a lot of lower branches not doing to much I hope I got my question out there so you guys could help thanks ..oh the table has 2 1000 watt lights on a mover

nice lookin crop.

well theres 2 ways to go here.

either trim those lower ones, and get rid of the "popcorn" buds that grow there. thus sending that budding energy upwards.
(if you do this one wait at least a week after sexing)

or leave those alone and when you harvest just get the main colas and leave the baby buds in the sun for another week or so.

youd be amazed how much those can puff up when they have an entire root system behind them

hummm ok i'll try both and see what one is best ..so far you seem to be the only one that has any input thank you nowtall

What Now said harvest the top colas when ready then lower the lights and finish the bottom, but know that you need to keep em green don't let the fan leaves die off like you see in all the pics

ive just (almost) done all of the above and if u do trim a lot of leaves it opens up the lower areas for light and removes a bit of grow competition, my plants jumped a lot in the next week, that was 5th week of flowering btw(dont go nuts though, if ur gannu harvest the cola and try to give the popcorns another week ur gaunna need some leaves)

thanks for all the help guys I'm getting ready to put another 35 clones on the table I will be reading EVERYTHING I can on here during this run I'll also try to post more pictures in every phase of my grow so if ya see something right or wrong you could comment on it thanks again
