I'm 1 week into flower an plants have taken off pretty well. No actual buds yet but white hairs popped out of the tips this morning. I have a 8x4 tent with 3 1kw lights. I have a net setup and ive been pushing tops back under and the sides of the stems have been popping out new shoots like crazy. Theres like 15-20 top sites each plant with direct light.
My question is should i be trimming certain amount of the stems under the canopy? This is supposed to increase yeild by having certain amount of sites with direct light rather than a billion sites using all the energy of plant that dont have the direct light? If i should trim them i feel like right now is perfect time or last chance to do it before there is actual buds.
Plants are not huge. Theyre in soil and about 2.5ft tall from lid to top of plant. The canopy is about 1 3/4 feet above lid of plant.
