When can I start with lolipoping? I am asking because the strains have hell a lot of leaves, the branches are already touching the wall of the growbox. I don't know if it's good if the branches are touching the wall, or do they need some distance to the wall?!
Solved
Week 5
Leaves. Too many

Yes do it now! Wipe away all nodes but the top 4! I highly recommend watching Kyle kushmans super cropping video on YouTube!

Now is the perfect time mate! Take away the bottom stems because honestly they won't even make a gram of smokable bud.... Take a few leaves away. (Doesn't matter if they touch the tent at all btw). And then repeat again in 2 or 3 weeks when the stretch has stopped. ๐Ÿ‘๐ŸŒฑ

Hey, You just flipped to 12/12 this week so now would be the best time to lollipop, and defoliate, because it's going to still grow a lot more over the next couple weeks. Much of what you remove will probably be blocked by big leaves again here in 2-3 weeks. The walls not a huge deal, but of coarse the less the better. more room, happier plants, more airflow, no leaves getting moisture buildup between them and the wall. Happy flowering โœŒ๏ธ

From what I can see on you pictures you can "lolopoping" right now if you means defoliation then pluck the leaves of the top that are blocking light to the lower budsites and the lowest leaves that are not receiving light at all can be removed too ( such as the small lower branchs that will suck the energy to make small buds ) If the leaves are touching the wall there is no problem with that , it means that you'r using all the space available. Ps : remove only the leaves that are blocking light and don't remove too many at the same time

They don't really need distance. Although they won't absorb much light if they're pushed again the wall. I generally trim anything that is being bent/misshapen by the wall.. You can start cutting early if they look healthy enough (week 3).. And if I was you I'd definitely wanna do some heavy trim before the flower really kicks in. Also consider elevating the 2 side guys.. They will benefit quite a bit if the canopy is raised to the same height as the faster grower. You've done really well and your plants are growing so good you might run into space problems later on.
