Can I Prune My Buds And Not Hurt My Girls?

[apophas]

I have 9 female indicas that are all in about 4 weeks of budding. Most buds are the size of my thumb nail. Money is tight right now and I need some smoke. Can I Prune some of these small buds and dry em out without damaging the plants. And if so, is there some special rules to follow? Thanks

u will fuck it all up and secondly its not even ripe yet or flushed so it will proberly just taste like wet grass

you can do it. i certainly dont recomend it at 4wks though, there will be very little THC in the buds if any. the .5 gram buds you cut now could be 14 gram buds in 4-5wks.

there will be little negative effects on your plant, actually after a couple days of healing it will divert the energy that was going to those fluff nugs to the better upper flowers. it will set you harvest back a couple days due to the healing, but my honest opinion is doing this is better than going out and paying retail for weed to smoke.

only cut off what you have to to get by as it is better to just leave them alone.
