Thanks for your responseView attachment 1726895View attachment 1726896View attachment 1726893View attachment 1726894View attachment 1726892

hey man first off they look BEAUTIFUL and im new to growing but IMO go for it i dont think youll stress them out too much if anything theyll love you more for helping them get that extra light ya know well hope all goes well and if you dont mmind me asking what kinda strain(s) you got going?

Nah man. One thing I learned is not to trim... I think its just a tendency to wanna "Improve" or "fix" something.. Even when budding and theirs alot of shade... Just Move the leaves.. never trim.. Bud will be bud shaded or not.

leave them be. what the hell do you think makes the buds? buds getting light?

i tryed looking up the alien white fire on the strain list and couldnt find it any where so i call the dispansery where i got it ( queen clone dispensary) and he told me it was a strain they made they crossed (super lemon haze x alien og)

Thanks for everyones reply i think ill just let them be...chers!

Dont trim/prune/supercrop/transplant during flowering if you can avoid it. If you feel the need you can gently LST the branches to spread them and you can tie or tuck the big fan leaves back. It's the leaves that make the bud. Like RawBudski said, light on the buds themselves is less important.

well im glad you all answered after me or i wouldve felt like garbage for making him ruin his plant lol plus i just learned soemthing new as well
