The reason I don't fill up my table is I stay below the allowed amount by the state. So I want the most out my clones as I can get while staying with in the law
I find it that lolipoping them produces less bud. So far the one's with a few colas and take about 1/4 of the bottom out, cut any small leafs covereding bud sites and leave ever major large fan leafs as to me they are the fuel factories for bud growth! And now that I am feeding them bud xl, I am getting some nice mass to them. But always looking for better ideas to increase them!
haha, dewey i think we are both stoned and not understanding each other.
you do realize that is exactly what i was telling you to do to increase yield.
i understand your wish to stay within state's limit.
which is why i said not to lollipop as much down to a single cola....only lollipop down to like 2-4 top main colas instead of just ONE main cola.
yea we are saying the same thing....my fellow stoner...
and btw, that budXL WILL increase your bud mass, i've seen it in action...i've gots to have it on my next nute purchase. GOTS TO
and yea of course lollipop decreases yield...but only in some op as its relative. most cases where lollipopping needs to be done is in cases where its hella crowded. lollipopping increase airflow under the canopy and also allows you remove lower branches that will produce popcorn buds being that the canopy will become so damn dense that they will die off or create tiny buds anyway. thus when lollipop you are able to fit more in....so in some cases, NOT lollipopping will decrease yield.
but for your tray..and plant limit count...i would let them branch out as much as i could to get maximum yield, in fact, you may want to look into scrog....if not scrog...at least get a trellis to prop your buds
