ok so i understand the whole lollipop idea ect, trim lower growth at 2 weeks and later on at another 2 weeks. And start flowering about after a week of veg in order to get single colas BUT WHAT ABOUT IF you were to veg for about a month, do some LST, than start flowering? But also trim the lower growth when starting flowering. Would it still be single colas but just bigger since you let it veg?

Hope to hear some responses from people who have vegged for a while, than lollipoped like this.

Why would you want to LST a lollipop plant there is no lower brances to receive the light.

LST to keep it short while vegging. Giving it more veg time so it will produce more bud during flowering.

Yes and the reason it makes more bud is because it allows light to reach the lower branches with the same intesity as the top. If you are cutting off all the lower branches to lollipop it then there is nothing to produdce the extra bud.

The reason you lollipop is to conserve space there for being able to pack in more plants under the light, if you bend them over you are taking up the extra space that you created from lollipoping. You don't have to believe me though go ahead and do it find out for yourself...:roll:

ok and the bendind / lst didnt take very much room at all. And i am sure the veg time has nothing to do with the more bud right? hmmmmm

and the reason for cutting the lower branches is to redirect all the plants strength into the branches that i didnt cut.....aka bigger buds?
