I want to know more about trimming Cannabis, as far as making more branches for better yield. I need to know where to trim and what to cut, i dont want big ass leaves, i want tons of branches and nodes to have more buds. If someone can kinda give me an idea that would be good i got my plants right here!:rasta:
Once you cut a branch off, normally 2 to 8 shoots are formed (should be done while vegging.) When you trim, tare off the bottem leaves that are close to the stem and may be discolored to brown or dead. It is said that those leaves reduce the potential yield.
Yea thats what i did, i also pinched and destroyed the branch tissue on alot of the branches... i heard it was SUPERCROPPING? ill put some pictures up right now.

There's a trimming method used in Phototrons that may be what your looking for.
Remove fan leaves at 4 inches
Remove all other leaves at 3 inches
Pinch top shoot of plant at 24 inches
Pinch primary shoots after first internode
Pinch secondary shoots after first internode.
This will maks a really bushy plant with lots of bud sites but they will be small buds.
I used a phototron for years when I didnt have a proper grow room. Now I just use it for mothers.
Yea if you look in my pictures i think i trimmed too much!
