Northern Lights Auto 90 days

I cut down the upper 1/2 of this Northern Lights plant at 90 days from sprout and I am leaving the bottoms to go for longer as they are lighter green and were not much exposed to the light. I heard they will mature more but i have not done that before so i am curious to see how much those lower buds change.
I thought this plant yielded a lot. Once its dry I will weigh it. I am guessing 7 ounces of good bud might come from this plant and all the leaf trim and larfy stuff another 4 ounces.
The last picture is the lower parts I will monitor.

Looks early got some the same but waiting.

Perhaps a little. I always heard wait a week longer than you think. 4.75 oz dried tops. Still waiting on lowers.

Killed it, well done

Cut down the bottom half yesterday. It is much less dense stuff but it is all resin covered so how bad can it be...

Looks dope! Forget density, if its enjoyable thats all that matters. What period of the grow did you lollipop those?

I cut the lower growth off once it looked like it was getting enveloped by all the upper areas and sort of just kept up on it. It seems like if your not cutting that lower stuff off fairly regularly as you go it can start filling in again and i heard that lower stuff sucks energy from the tops.

cool so you removed it during flower as well?

Yes, it really didnt seem to matter. I would say the last 4 weeks nothing much grew but early flower i would just cut it off as at that point its just small little growths. It didnt seem to make a difference.
