I lollipop a bit of bottom away during veg once more for ease of watering but i lollipop up to bottom 3rd away without causing too much stress in one go at 2 weeks into 12/12, but would do it at 3 weeks in if i could get in to do it so usually at 2 weeks, if i defoliate and i sometimes do and sometimes don't (tbh ive noticed a difference really either way in end result) but i do that after stretch if over at 3weeks into bloom and again around 6 or 7 weeks into bloom

Ye watering as awkward at the minute. We'll I'm just into 2weeks of flower now so maybe I'll lollipop abit next week? Growth has just come out of no where. I gave them a slight lollipop and defol before flipping but it's just come back twice as much lol.

I always try and do mine as early as possible and preferably before I see crowning. I want to do a little experimenting with defoliation next year. I've always defoliated in the past but just recently I've been reading some stuff and want to try and remove aa little as possible. Apparently, a leaf has about a 60 day curve where production peaks then falls off and then the plant sheds those leaves as they age. I want to do a little comparison between the two to see if removing the leaves helps or not.

That's more or less how i do it mate. Don't be scared to whip shit loads away in one go, it`s no biggi. Why i like doimg at 3 weeks in is cus you know where you stand with plant when growing has more or less stopped or slowed to a crawl, so you know where you stand kinda stuff.

I do day 7 and day 21. I don't go mad unless I'm experimenting. Just so all tops are getting light.

I snipped some at the top at the start of flower but they just come back with a vengeance. Just too scared to go over the top. Don't want to stress my girls
