... Should i remove the lower branches even on 30th day of flowering? ...
Day 30 is good. No issues will arise if you prune that late in flower. FYI - I usually lollipop between Day 32 and Day 35 of 12/12. Once they start Week 6, the ladies have shown me where my primary/secondary flowers are and where my lollipop candidates are.
... U mind checking the whole video please? There are a few weak branches here and there. Not sure if i'd remove them ...
TBH - it was a little hard to see below your primary canopy in your video - cause you showed far more of the primary canopy than you did of the stuff below. A general rule of thumb when I lollipop:
- anything that is buried beneath my primary/secondary canopy and is becoming starved of good light - leaves, small thin branches and small popcorn nuggets far down on a branch - come off. And I didn't see enough of your down below stuff in the video to be able to point it out.
- I will remove only a portion of a fan leaf - e.g. - 1/3 of one finger of one fan leaf that is covering a good looking flower in my secondary layer. In that case, I will not remove the entire fan leaf.
Over the final 35 days, I like my plants to put all of their energies and hormones into beefing up the flowers in my primary & secondary layers instead of tending to their weak and infirmed parts. Yours truly is also a big proponent of increasing the airflow around the underside to help keep the dreaded "m" word from spoiling your grow. Removing the LARFY shit helps to increase air flow around the underside.
Let's see if we can help you to remove the second part of your thread title ...
