Limbing - Anyone Do it?

[faithlessxxx]

Removal of small branches and bud sites...

A friend swears by it...?

Yes, the lowest branches that have tiny crappy buds that are IMPOSSIBLE to manicure, suck energy, show abuse symptoms the worst, and block airflow.

They get GONE! :D (at the final repot before flower)

Hmmm. Just did it with one of 7 NL's at two weeks flower. All from the same mum, and all at the same level of development, height, etc.

Will be interesting to compare.

as anything tends to be over-done, keep in mind: too much pruning can cause stress, and force plants to reverse sex ... I also remove dead, lower leaves, but I caution growers to not get 'carried away' ... :smokin:

Yeah- I only take the ones that are already spindly and weak.
