Hello,

O.M. I (try to) grow similar sized plants as yourself; short, single cola plants, so my plants have very minimal side branching when they are triggered into flowering. Side branching intensifies in the first 3 weeks of flowering, and only then does it become a nuisance. My first question is, do you cut lower branches off? Secondly, when do you do this, so that it doesn't impact yield? Thanks.
macnasty Reviewed by macnasty on . Why should you not trim leaves during flowering I was told that during flowering, i should trim the larger leaves off that are hiding the buds. I did do this and have trimmed several leaves off the plants giving the plant more light for the buds. Now i have been told NOT TO trim that the larger leaves help light intake. I have noticed some of the plants are wilting on the bottom. is this from trimming too much. What is the affect from trimming the leaves that i will have? I am pannicing now i have gone this far i am afraid i might Rating: 5
