This is why I trim my bush

[Sdh777]

Some ask me why I trim my bush... I know many here prefer un-trimmed or “all naturale” and that‘s great, but I never cared for an unruly bush, so I trim my bush & I trim it high & tight.
Reason…I use an RDWC with 4 plants in a small 3 x 4 tent so the growth is out of control. If I don’t trim, theres just no way I can cram 4 plants in that small space without running into trouble. Once I lollipop everything below the SCROG, all the energy & growth go straight to the remaining branches & colas. Air circulation & lighting are more efficient. If all goes well, I should pull over 3lbs from this mini grow.
These pics are just a few days apart…right after a major trim & just before I flipped to flower this week. Let the budding begin.
Yours truly,

I try to keep my bush trimmed but it’s like so hard to control. I totally agree a nice trim job is where it is at and yours look fantastic!!! I wish mine looked so good.

Thanks! I‘ve got it set-up on auto-pilot because I travel almost every week for work, so I just add water & nutes once a week, trim as needed & hope I don’t come home to a dead crop or a small flood in the basement.

What's the real wattage?

Looks dangerous the way those lower lights are set up.
Braver man than me leaving that unattended

 

[Southernontariogrower]

Cant wait too see the flowers, looks like youve got it nailed. Thats alot of light, hope you update soon.

 

[Sdh777]

What's the real wattage?

Real wattage is probably 250 each. Why do you think the lower lights are dangerous? I’ve done it that way for years.

Why do use the lower lights if you strip everything? I imagine you don’t get any bud under your nets and the top lights look like you have good penetration on the bush.

That canopy will get so thick from topping & Scrogging in a small tent with 4 plants in an RDWC system…the bottom of the buds are so much thicker & healthier with the lower lights. No more thin, whispy leaves & buds…plus I still get huge popcorn buds below the canopy.
