So today I defoliated my outdoor plant and also topped ,
I remove lower growth in all branches/lollipop)
Did I defoliate good enough ? ?
Here some before and after pics

after: the top half of the plant , those shoots should be shooting out right after topping? There still not long enough to bend under the ring
the bottom branches I’m training more outward so those branches can encircle top half growth tht![9C2EE6B1-AB95-430C-BACC-D33E5750B538.jpeg](/data/attachments/4224/4224550-2a09cbd06131776dfd3d5b788db023ff.jpg)

I would like all my branches to look like this thts what I’m going for and then just let them grow vertical , if I’m still LSTn should I wait to top the branches once there curling up like this one ? Or can I go ahead an top while there still horizontal ? Or wait till they start growing vertical again?![2797A62D-D0CF-4112-9BED-6164F656BA5B.jpeg](/data/attachments/4224/4224553-24da5c5b22dcdcab48f941b7ba787abe.jpg)
I’d like all my bottom branches like this so they can encircle the top half the plant , would this work/be a good
Can I top while branches are horizontal from being LSTd ? Or wait for them to start curving up and are vertical ?
can I go ahead and top all my branches at the same time along with the main stalk aswell ?
