How to avoid popcorn. PIC.

[HeartlandHank]

Uh wait..explain this technique to me please?

I don't know about technique.. but.. it's just cutting out all of the lower growth sites in the early weeks of flower. I reduces the amount of popcorn and makes for larger top and midlevel buds.

I added a before pic... that should clear it up.

Seems basically the same thing as lollipoping which I don't do, popcorn buds make for great hash and joint bud later on.

Yeah, pretty much just lollipopping. I've found that the yield is really not reduced. For those who prefer to avoid popcorn buds (like the name of the thread) it might be helpful.

I love hash. Especially dry sieved.

Dry sift I'm more of a bubble (full melt) kind of guy though can't wait to harvest some of these 007 Ogs and make some more.

I like the bubble too. The thing I like most about the bubble is the workable texture. I like rolling a soft piece then pulling it to the length of a rolling paper.
I like the dry sieved taste and effect more though. It's closer to what I've come to know as a hash high. Bubble effect more closely resembles smoking buds to me.
Bubble in joints with ground herb is great though.

Dry sieved with tobacco would be my favorite.

I trim up the bottom of my kush strain and see no real loss of yield at the end. What I do see is larger buds overall. And it helps in avoiding PM and bugs. I'm all for it especially if you have limited space.

sounds like a smart method to keep the air flowing and bugs to a minimum i will try it
