q befor flowering

hi riu
i need some advice. ive got a girl growing 1.5 month. done some lst on her. had a ph issues, there was a p def and the branch got red/purple, now solved, the leafs looking good but the branch is still a bit red.
1. should i wait more befor turning into flowering ?
2. should i trim the small leafs that are under the canopy befor flowering? i read people saying it helps the plant focus his anergy on the buds on the top

thnks

Yo man, why is your rootball hanging out the dirt? Ive never seen lst'ing done like this. I would say you can flower now yes. Just depends when your ok with putting her into flower. I usually let mine get around 2ft before switching as they usually double to tripple their size depending on strain.

First, DJ caught something there.
What is that rootball doing way out there?
Next, don't wait for your red stems to turn green, or you'll never flower.
You CAN trim if you want, that's more of a personal preference thing. Try looking up lollipopping.
Lastly, what are you calling LST'ing?

i read that when u feed the plant you need to feed only the roots and not the main branch so it helps to spread the water around.
lst is for tieing the big branches down for better small branches grow
thnks for the help

If there is no new sign of deficiency then flower when ready. As for trimming bottom, as said above personal preference. My opinion? Leave the pop corn!! I get lots of hash from it. And I still get dense nugs wherever the light is strong enough. (tops and middles) Bottoms can be a little headache if cramped with other plants but hey.. I think it's worth it since I get good nugs and also get to make butter and hash. Lollipop=no edibles/concentrates unless you use your tops/middles.. but then what do you smoke?? Sorry.. panic attack from thought of no smokables.

thnks man. its flowering time
