Like to lollipop them for one cola?

  1. I would like to grow in my area single cola White Russian. Does this strain do well with this idea/type of growing? I dont' really know how much cutting can be done and still wind up with a cola that will grow?? I know a plant needs its leaves but if I want to have one or two colas that will grow well/big can I do that by trimming off all the other limbs and or when how much ect... Heard of lollipopping but have seen crowded sog looking examples sort of now and can't figure out what to chop off or when. Some of the pics look like lots of limbs still one em so help please if you know what I mean and can. Thanks...
     
  2. if you want one true cola, id flower plants when they are only about a foot/foot and a half tall. after stretch they will be 18-36 inches and may not have only one cola but it will be close. Is there a reason in particular u are doing this? I know one huge cola sounds great but id rather have side buds too n get more weight overall.
     
  3. Well if you put in my system 15 plants and let the go like you say, I do still trim, they become a forrest! I have 57 holes for plants and if I could somehow train them to be one cola plants I could IMHO get more yield but not sure they will like it that way? Have tried small plants and they are not so great but I did it all wrong. I let them get about 14 inches tall in veg then they get in flower to around 38"s tall at finish.. Make big colas but to much time with popcorn and side trimming all the way through.. Have a 7x7x8' area in tubes with sprayers and 2 1000 hps agro sun lamps... By the way they are not in hoods and work great that way with just batwing reflectors.. Heat really is not that bad with two fans and a/c.. Now it is getting cold so no heat issues at all. Thanks...



     
  4. its just not how the plants grow so itd be tough to keep one true cola per plant. Id honestly only use every other hole and grow em as I described. plants with a lil elbow room will do wayyy better then a forest that you need to trim 50% of vegetation off to keep em under control.
