With this "Lollipop Method" WHAT is the average yeild???? i am going to be doing it to my WW what should i expect?

there is this thing called an AVERAGE. that is what i asked what is AVERAGE. dont mean to be a dick i just really would like to know. do you get more or less when you use this method?

probly about the same. the plant puts all its energy into the top nugs instead of all the popcorn nugs at the bottom. when it comes down to weight i dont think u will see a big difference. but as for bud quality. i myself like big juicy nugs instead of small underdone popcorn shits,

There is no real ave. unless you have all of the Variables.

1. what type of lighting are you using?
2. what type of exhaust/fans and other air are you using?
3. with or with out Co2?
4. what type of nutes will you be using?
5. soil vs. hydro
6. strand of plant
7. type of area growing in?
8. the list goes on and on...

Now, do you get how someone can't give a AVERAGE.

Being intermediate between extremes. def. of average. ok genius ill make it easy 4 U. if you had a mother plant and you took 20 clones. 10 you lollipopped and 10 you didnt what would be the difference of weight between the two ALL DONE IN THE SAME GROW ROOM ALL THE SAME EXACT VARIABLES:mrgreen:

give us those variables and maybe we can find a ballpark estimate.

you said about the same.

geez, quite aggressive for someone expecting people to give free advice. what the fuck does it even matter? if you want the big cola go for it. if you want to grow the whole plant out do it. you can get the same yield or a bigger yield or a smaller yield. id say, in theory, you would probably get a slightly better yield with multiple colas. this is because the plant will have more leaf surface area to absorb photons and use them to make sugars. then again the plant can grow a bigger main cola with all the rest trimmed. so, in conclusion i think the main cola will certainly be bigger but the overall yield may be slightly smaller. this is just my own personal logic based on no actual growing experiences. but if you want any more advice you should definitely stop being a complete douche-bag and listen to what everyone is saying. there are way too many variables to give any answer. the setup will matter very much since one may favor the non-trimmed plant and some may favor the top cola grower. so actually think about what people are saying and stop looking for answers that are impossible to conclude. an average?...zero ounces to four ounces, on average.

wooow you guys are way to stoned:blsmoke: or are thinking WAY WAY to hard. i dont know how else to put it. I said ALL DONE IN THE SAME GROW ROOM ALL THE SAME EXACT VARIABLES. here is another exampla maybe someone has done this and will get it..................maybe not LOL. ... you grow 2 clones from same mother plant one you lollipopped one you didnt.. you do this 100 times would the weight of the lollipopped buds be more or less than the ones that were NOT lollipopped or the same. is there a big difference in weight. LET ME REPHRASE. HAS ANYONE EVER TOOK A BUNCH OFF CLONES LOLLIPOPPED HALF OF THE PLANTS WEIGHED THE BUD AND COMPARED THE WEIGHT TO THE OTHER HALF OF THE BUDS FROM THE PLANTS NOT LOLLIPOPPED ...............

is that a big yeild increaser. i thought it was more for space. i am new grower....an i kinda know how to do SCROG but not exactly ..... and i didnt know it increased yeild so i havent done to much research on it.... and i didnt think i could do it too successfully with my system.

i have a 9x4 room with 12 plants, i am looking to yeild 4 oz per plant. if done correct scrog is one of the heaviest yeilding techniques. you veg your plants longer to fill up the screen. and since every budsite is getting equal light, all budsites turn into top main colas. kinda like lollipopping but in a screen so all the branches are on the same plane.
