First photo: shows the initial removal of primary and secondary buds. After this was accomplished, I removed the (seeded) lower buds.

Second photo: In the bottom of my grow pots, I have a 1" layer of rock, with a layer of shade cloth on top of 'em. The shade cloth keeps the soil out of the rocks. Makes it easier to do what I'm about to do, and I don't have to pick a bunch of rocks out of the rootball.

Having prepared a 5 gallon pot for the transplant, (rock layer, shade cloth, fresh soil...) and after trimming all the harvest, I remove plant from the 3 gallon pot. Turning plant upside down, I tear-off the shade cloth.
