hi growers
so i was in week 2 ish of flower and my plant was just starting to get button buds on her
she was half way though the stretch and i decided to re work the plant in to the scrog net because i felt like the internodal spacing's was too far apart also at that stage i also removed a decent amount of the lower fan leaves

as i look back over the photos i took over the week i feel like i lost about week of stretch

for future reference do people normally work the scrog right though stretch even if buds have started to form
or once they start its best to leave them

If it’s still stretching, you can still modify the structure carefully.

Once it starts to really focus on flowers, I would leave her be.

You have a lot of foliage, you definitely did not over prune. Feel free to loosen the canopy up for air flow at this point.

Looks really good though!

ok i can work with the early stretch with out worries and i will probably remove more leaves later in to flower but that will depend on how my humidity is going
i was thinking of removing more from the under side or is she lollipopped good enough. its mainly just fan leaves. i removed 90% of the small tops

I would remove a few of the lower nodes, fan leaves. For one, the airflow throughout the canopy will help distribute CO2 and displace produced oxygen, aiding photosynthesis. Also, extra nodes during flowering, especially down low, will detract from production in your large tops. Many smaller buds increases trimming time also. An added benefit in high humidity areas is the airflow can prevent mold formation from dead air spots that stagnate.
