the first one is small branchy plant and the second is tall but still bushy, the first one is a little over a foot tall the second is about 2 feet and sum odd inches

[Shovelhandle]

I'd like to suggest something but I can't. My plants get trimmed right from 2" tall and that can't be done now.
Good Growing, bkb!

Just four weeks old from seed.

With a lead like that, it should almost be required that you do!

[bkb]

thanks shovel handle so i have every leaf and stem on it even the first two should i leave it?

[Shovelhandle]

Should you cut anything off?

Well, now that the plant is ready to go to flower it's too late for some of the cropping techniques. Also, a lot depends on what you are going to do. Indoor or outdoor? Container or in the ground? If indoors what kind of set-up as far as medium and lighting? Size of container? With plants that tall going into flower I hope you are going outdoors or have some strong lighting. Let us know a little more and we can suggest some things to do the best with these plants. Hurry! If you do any trimming you may want to give the plant some time to recover before going into bloom cycle.

Make sure you do all the pruning before you start to flower. Some people like to do it, others don't. If you are going to you should remove smaller growth at the bottom for two reasons. One, to allow greater air flow and two, to focus growth on the upper parts of the plant that are closer to the lights. You should also remove parts that look less healthy than others.

Correct me if I'm wrong but I believe mirrors suck in light more than they reflect. Use flat white paint if cost is an issue.

u can prune anything not getting sunlight but remember a plant goes into shock for 5 days or so after u want to use any time u have wisely or the plant will out grow the methods like lst,topping and supercropping u only have so much time to do things on a plant
