That's what I was thinking. And in my past couple of grows it takes FOREVER for the popcorn buds to finish. I have been cleaning mine off over the last couple weeks as well. :)

Just got done with removal for today will be back at it again tomorrow. By doing this now it will give me more time to groom the big beautiful nugs . Well gave the gurls a rinse down today they will be dry by the evening then they get a BT spraying the whole garden. Very pleased with the gurls seeing alot of budsites on all plants at this point. keepem green dirrtyd

I am going for another round this afternoon and will be hitting mine with some Safer. I may wait for that because I need to feed the ladies as well. :)

Well you can do both in the same evening. Safer and Bt are the same one is the product the other the company. Well remember to hit them now as much as possible I know I have to back off next month for sure. Have to do a heavy spraying tonight hopefully the fog will help by spreading it out for me. Well not long now really liking the two plants that will finish early now. Theya re going to have some nice buds at the end of the day. Keepem green dirrtyd

Well the clones I took all rooted and are turning into some nice mothers. I will take them outside and take pics later. All plants seem to be loving life no major issue right now. Hopefully can say that in two months. keepem green dirrtyd

Cleaning out the middle of the middles of outdoor plants is anothe rone of those debated- to- death deals. I've done it both ways, and honestly last year I didn't do it cause I just had too many plants!! Some people will say that cutting on your plants causes stress, and causes growth to slow dramatically till it gets over the shock. But I swear I've always seen a growth spurt if anything, and it definitly makes sense that taking away small underdeveloped stuff that'll never be anything anyway, redirects that energy to the tops whereyou need it! Not to mention the airflow and sunlight it allows in that keeps mildew from starting up in there.
I personally think it's prolly best to do it once real good at the beginning of flower, and then no more after that. I don't think doing a little, and then a month later doing a little more, is really helpful, especially in the hotter months. Also as far as losing yield, your not losing anything that would've been top shelf buds, only larfy loose crap, so no loss there. That's my take on it, mine are not done yet, and prolly won't be cause I'm too damn lazy to do it.
