I don't know about lollipopping, sorry... I was wondering about your inline fan that blows through the lights. It looks like there is a duct reducer on the side that is open... if that isn't attached you can take it off for a tiny bit more airflow, maybe you have it there for a reason... I thought maybe you had ducting hooked up before, changed your mind and forgot to take of the reducer.

Beautiful plants by the way. It's hard to believe that's just two weeks. Nice.

I'd lolli them sooner than later BAM. Push the hormones up into the main colas you actually wanna keep as soon as possible. Waiting longer than two weeks into flower can almost hamper a good yield. Lookin' good though man! :bigjoint:

IMO, i like to lollipop right when switching to flower... and i only take the bottom 4 branches off as a general rule starting out. Like OldFrog was saying, you can take some more off up to 2 weeks into flowering as far as the growing tips go. Some persons even continue to 'De-Veg' them throughout the flowering cycle, removing more and more fan leaves at day 20, 30, and 40. With fan leaves that block bud sites on the top half of the plant coming off at day 20. Fan leaves that block bud sites anywhere on the plant coming off at day 30. And basically all remaining fan leaves coming off at day 40. The light's really only going to be used once... so why not have it hitting nothing but buds ;-)

(EDIT: oh, hey, bro - ur first grow journal featured a link to a YouTube video ... which is probably what inspired my to try to make my own... so check it out sometime if you get a free moment.)
