    I have read that lollipopping gives more energy to the upper buds. I just trim the small sucker branches from the bottom.
     
    Lollipopping is the act of trimming the lower branches off your plant during flower season so the plant can concentrate on getting more nutes and water to the upper buds. I could be wrong. Perhaps Richard Dean knows?

  4. Yeah it's what @[member="Old School Smoker"] said but also so you don't have tiny scrappy buds to trim when harvest time comes. They are so dam tedious.

    The term lollipopping comes from when people grew SOG and cut all lower branches off leaving just one stick of bud with a bare stem resembling a lollipop. This has moved over to other forms of training too and although the name lollipopping doesn't make much sense when it's applied to something like a ScrOG, the effect is still just as useful
