Yes it’s a great way to dispose of the excess leaves and provides a discreet way to dispose of them.

I do it too and even if they don't eat it, it compost fairly quick.

Looking for lollipopping advice
How and when to properly do lollipopping? Is it a single or a multiple day process, what would cause less stress? I wanted to do it on more than one day, try a slow process, just remove from bottom to top whatever won't get enough light, any suggestions?

Defoliation of all large fan leaves
When defoliating is it ok to remove all of the large fan leaves? I have read conflicting reports in some cases stating that it will stress the plants and even reduce yeild rather than increase? Any links that include pics would be appreciated. Thanks to all of you

Flower trimming
I've got several lower branches that aren't stretching high enough to get any good light, at what point during flower is it ok to get out the scissors? I think I might need to do a lil leaf trimming in the lower canopy as well. Could/should this be done at the same time? Thanks

Defoliated 2 fan leaves - pre flowering! :(
I've just removed 2 big fan leaves that were potential light blockers. I've just read that defoliating when flowering can stress the plant and reduce yield. The first pistels have appeared in the last few days and I only removed two leaves. Is it likely I've ruined it?

Defoliate
I asked a week ago whether or not to defoliate my plants and was advised to leave them be. But it's looking like where flowers are forming is being impeded by the larger fan leaves, so I suppose same question should I trim these or am I too late now flowers are coming. Thanks

What leaves are ok to remove?
Hi! Is it fine to remove the upper fan leaves on this plant as well or should I wait thill the side branches get bigger leaves? I removed the lowers leaves after LST so nothing touches the soil, but some of them are blocking a bit light for the new growth. Thanks!

Too bushy?
Should I attempt any more defoliation at this point? Each plant individually doesn’t have a crazy amount of leaves, but it’s pretty crowded in there, any suggestions?

I did some major defoliation on my monsterprofit today( aprox 100 fan-leaves removed). I was wondering if i have to hold back on water now or add some extra. She gets a nettle/banana/fig thea once in every 3 watering times.

Harvest questions.
Hello, I wanted to know if these look like they are ready for harvest or should I wait. The say it's ready when the pistels are milky white and amber but some of them aren't fully developed. Do I wait till those develop or when the majority are mature? Thanks in advance! 8wks old
