Ok cool. I was just about to say that no one commented lol. I saw a lot of people who said that the bottom nugs never gets that big and it takes away from the main colas. Is that not true?

The lower buds don't get very big, but there is a lot of them. I usually end up with at least an oz or 2 of little popcorn nugs. The larf is great for rolling and making hash or edibles. It doesn't look pretty but it sure gets you high as hell. And I don't see the tops packing on as much weight as you loose by lollipoping.
There are a lot of people on both sides of the fence, but I honestly think it's an outdated method. Certain applications of plant training require a level of defoliation, but never that much. I like to lst and pinch and bend the stems in the direction I want them to grow. I use twine slipknots to pull the higher branches down to even out the canopy. Sometimes during my training process I have to pluck one or 2 leafs because they're poking up into my t5.

I believe that I over did it bit. But the buds are packed they're just down into the scrog. I think where I went wrong was not letting them stretch over the nets enough before I flipped. I got impatient lol

Thanks bro! Yes they were over fed. I called myself trying to correct it lol. I'm just ready for my next grow as I believe that I'm more informed. The first pistils have turned orange and curled, from what I've researched the new white pistils may have come from it getting to hot in my grow tent. Sometimes I came home to 85-90 degrees smh. I don't want too much amber so I'll check again I'm a few days. Also do you think my sugar leaves can take another week.
