Pruning tiny budsites in WEEK 5 of FLOWERING?

BermudaCowerstarted grow question 4 years ago
Is it ok to continue removing popcorn budsites during week 5 of flowering? Am I risking a chance of hermie? I want to remove just 2 per day, every other day, maybe 5-6 of them total. I always pick a best answer, Thank you!

Take these small flowers from the lowest least light penetrated parts of the plant, leaving all that have direct light. You also need to remove those fan leaves from down low as well as any others blocking light to a flower. Yes doing a little a day of pruning is always wise and on days the plant has been watered/fed. Look up "monster cropping" and try a lighter version for your first try, removing basically everything that the lights don't reach.

It could stress her and make her go hermie, but even then look at the bright side. Feminized seeds for free if she goes hermie from female since those seeds will be feminized, and you can take the seeds out and do some dry sift with the flower to not risk getting more seeds, you can then use the leftover from that to make some really good cannabutter to have edibles for ages. If you have another strain nearby and she goes hermie, i would go as far as rubbing her all over my other female, some trans on fem action and shit would yield a pretty femined unknown cross wich could be a bad one, a cool one, or something completely new where you can reach even 40% thc, we just never know with new crosses. Overall, its possible but not the most probable outcome for her to hermie, so i would do it.
