Hi turkish i am about to start it on 2 of my plants. Its sometimes called a rod I read up on it and after about 4-5 weeks into veg you basicaly prune off each set of fan leaf and side branches the whole way up the stem . Then as each new set of side branches and fan leaf grow from the new growth on top, prune them off right up until the vegetive growth stops and the budding beggins, this is about 2 or 3 wks after light cycle changes from 20 to 12.
This way the plant puts all its energy into the top colan and creates a bigger higher quality bud. I dont think you would yeild as much as you normally would but if your stuck for space like me you could fit more plants under the light creating a bigger yeild per watt.
Sorry but i dont have any pics yet. Hope this helps.

Removing fan leaves is just plan stupid. The leaves are a plant's main mechanism of photosynthesis - they are what provide the fuel for bud growth. Removng them slows growth.
