Hey guys I just have a few lollipoping questions. I am about 5 days into flowering right now and was wondering if I can still lollipop my plants. Also, if it's ok to lollipop them still, do I just snip off the growth of the lower branches and leave the lower branches there or just cut off the whole lower branch?

I'm going to start lollipopping soon, at 2 weeks into 12/12, and be done at three weeks. The bottom 1/3 of the plant which, if you think about it, won't get much light once the plant grows beyond 3 feet.

clip off all the the bottome branches leaving just the top 4 depending if you topped it or not. Remove everything from the bottom branches that wont recieve lights pushing hormones and energy up to the tops i did this once and it worked great. Kinda strain dependent i think but i only had two long arms from topping it got like a qp off it under a 400watt hps

Ok thanks guys! I super cropped them a few weeks ago and I'm also doing the sea of green with the trelis net so pruning is definitely necessary. So instead of taking off the growth of the lower branches first, just cut off the whole branch?
