not a good time to trim leaves fellow

as you want the plant to put all its energy into producing buds

the problem with trimming leaves is it really hard to get right, the hole ideal about trimming leaves and stems is to remove all the weaker shoots on a plant so the light can get do down the sides of the largest shoots, it reduces the plant need to stretching for the light as there no competition, by slowing the stretch down the shoots become thicker and stronger, so in flower you end up with lots of large thick buds
I try and aim for 2" -3" gap between each shoot and remove any leaves nodes that are more than 6" from the top of the main shoot as this has giving me the best results

a lot of growers get this wrong and it can take years to get it right, so my advice would be to try this after you have been topping and lst your plant and got it right for a few crops without any problems, them move on to this as it like pushing your plants to the max its high risk but a really high yield if you get it right
 
thank you for the advice my plant is finnaly finished with a great result so far now its in darkness. I jus put it in dark at 5 a.m. on 7/07/15 and I see that peole say do it for 36 hours or 48 hours or three days or maybe a week so how long should I keep it in the dark for and what is the best dry an cure method that really sparks it up. I was told put it in macein jars an pop the top every day for a hour or two an do that for two weeks or longer an to dry trim all the fan leafs an leave the sugar leaves on an cut it branch by branch an tie it up side down, or cut the whole branch an hang it by the inside of the shoot for a week or until the stem breaks an don't just fold..so any advice on dark?/drying?/curing?/
 
nice fat colas. little over half the buds are this fat. . thanks to every one on this thread for helping me threw my first grow wouldint of done it with out ya all so thanks a lot again, ill post the final result in few more weeks after there done curing
