I would only do it during flower that way you know what are going to nice size buds and which ones are just going to stay small those you remove.

You should lollypop as soon as the plant looks strong any healthy,after say 6wwks.I'd do iit all a week before flowering.Stripping all the leaves off plants during flowering only started a few years ago,and only by a couple of the top growers.The master growers always told us not to stress our plants during flowering.They told us to take several fan leaves off that did a lot of shading,and they meant no more than a dozen.That what it says in what's known as "The Bible"Marijajuana Horticulture by Jorge Cerventise.Over a million copies in several languages says he's the man.Stoney Tark who writes for soft secrets and aomeone else started it.Iv just started taking about a 3rd off.Just the one's that shade the others. I'm still to be convinced myself.It certainly stresses the plant a lot.
