NotoriouslyAnonymousstarted grow question 5 years ago
I am flipping my plants to flower in a couple days. I am wondering if there is any specific things I can to get them ready like defoliation, lollipopping etc.

1 week before flower do a defoliation/ lolipop.
If your looking for just top buds, wipe away all the nodes on each beach up until the last 3!
I highly recommend watching Kyle kushmans super cropping video on YouTube!!

I say flip them and then after the first 2 weeks of flower stretch, trim them then. Trim anything that hadn't stretched and any big leaves blocking any nodes from receiving light., 🌱👍

Those are both things you could do to get them ready. you could go a watering or two of just water to clean out some of the grow nutrients if you wanted.. If you have a nutrient plan in mind stick to it.. You could also talk softly to them everyday and tell them to grow big.

My Girl's Gone Rogue with 10cm of Frosty Goodness!My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
