little update not much to mention still looking really healthy
just a quick question when would be the best time to trim her up so light can get through to all bud sites ?..ive read somewhere that its best to trim in 3rd week of flower is that correct ?

Day 52 from seed

Day 7 from switch (12/12) 20151212_111726.jpg 20151212_111746.jpg 20151212_111751.jpg

Looking good! Yeah that's the general consensus, you should stop all trimming during the 3rd week. Although I'm sure people do it up to the fourth, but that must depend on the strain and other variables. I'll stop trimming when the stretching stops.

But, why not try to bend the stems around to let more light through? That would be a better option and then you could just trim away the leaves that are still problematic.

oh what can I still tie them down now while there in flower...because I got a few screws around the pot which can tie the branches to ?

Sure, tying down is the least stressful method and can be done during such an eraly stage of flowering. Doesn't do much except redirect the auxins here and there, and that's fine. Just be careful not to snap the stems, I'm sure they are quite sturdy now.
