When to remove bottom growth?
Hey everyone, long time no see! DO-doo-do! I've got a question! Due to circumstances including overcrowding, high heat, low water...and also fimmed plants are seriously stretched. Now, I'm doing pretty well but I can see that the bottoms of the plants are not getting ANY light and I'm surmising this is a total waste of the plant's energy. I'm three weeks into flowering. My strains say that they will mature 7-9 weeks (but I have dual light which seems to finish them a bit faster). When should I go ahead and clear away those popcorn buds and tiny leaves?
I'd also like to mention, in my opinion, don't ever FIM your plants unless you know for a fact that that strain likes it. It makes for thin wispy wimpy plants. I'm clearing my signature about fimming, I hate it.
