Trim side shoots @ week 3 flower?

Raptor7started grow question 6y ago

I plan to do a final defoliation at the start of week 3 flowering. Lots of side shoots growing from the branches, should I snip those off during this final defoliation or will they produce decent buds? 4-way LST, 2 1/2’ diameter canopy

Hey Growmie, I normally remove them when I do a final defoliation, they always end up making popcorn buds, and once you remove them the plant focus it's energy on my making the main colas bigger. Hopefully, this was helpful and remember ..."Happy Growing" and "Free your mind one puff at a time"

If they are very very skiny and don't look like they will break the canopy snip them imo or leave some for bubble hash or butter.. 👊

Hello guys, I worry, not about the health of my plant, but the fact that it is a week late with the others. What do you think is the best? extend the growth of others by one week and let them catch up before 12/12 or stay on the schedule of others and prosper despite the delay.

I'm curious I've been flushing her out, the guy at the grow store is trying to get me to use a bloom booster right now. Doesn't make sense to me. But I do want the best result. Do I let her go? It give her a boost? Thanks!

Too late to train?Just discovered this is not an autoflower and I should have topped, stress trained or tried some techniques to reduce height and increase yield. Is it too late now? Should I at least defoliate? Would you recommend I replant in a bigger pot? (dont want it to grow anymore)
