should i trim lower branches?

Squarebagel · Oct 13, 2009

this plant has been in flower for 2 weeks now and i`m wondering if i need to do any extra trimming. flowers are coming in nice but do i need to take some off the bottom and let the plant put it`s energy into colas?

I would if I was you. lower buds are usally popcorn buds which you don't want anyways. Lollipop those bitch's!

Wow that one is stretching quite a bit. ever think of tying it down and lowering that light so the rest of the plant is getting some more love?

I save the decent sized extra growths, but if they are just lousy looking I cut them off. More energy to the main colas :leaf:

ok so here "it" is a couple days later.... i say "IT" because as i was looking close the other day i noticed what looked like ballz... UGH!!! So i lopped of all of the branches that were showing the sacs and tied the two tallest branches down. As of this morning no new balls and it`s looking good but if i see any more i`m taking it of my flower tent. I don`t want any pollinating going on with my other plants that are in there.

Bro if you see a plant showing it's sex and it's showing balls.. There is nothing you can do.. It is going to grow balls again, get it out of there before it has a chance to spread pollen in your grow room, unless pollen is deactivated by getting sprayed or other ways it will remain active in your grow room... Avoid conflict :leaf:

do you think that the herm will produce any good bud? would it be worth setting up a temporary spot for it in another room ( i have an extra light) or would you just chop it ??
