  1. Can someone explain to me when and how to lollipop?

  2. You want to cut off all the lower branches ensuring the growth goes to the top of the plant rather to the bottom branches thy don't get as much light and produce little popcorn nugs. Lollipoping can ensure upward growth and with that upward growth better and fatter nugs.

  3. I usually pick off little baby branches and bottom growth throughout my growing in veg. The ones at the bottom get no light and waste energy. They will expose themselves by being droopy and never really growing. Those are the ones you want to pick off.

    I lollipop aggressively right before I flip to 12/12. Growth really takes off when you initially change over so if you don't you'll be tricked into thinking the smaller growth is going to develop into something worth keeping. It won't and it's better to send all that growth to the main yielders.

    Lollipopping also helps with air circulation as well. Just watch a few YouTube videos on it and you'll be good to go.

  4. i would look at the plant. you can see what limbs will not recv. light those very bottom limbs in veg 2 to 4 max. as it starts to flower you will see what light penitration you have if its not getting light its going to be wispy popcorn. so what i am saying leave the top bud or 2 and stripping the rest of the limb so it looks like LP.      shout out to SG1
