in my case, the plant was very predisposed to this structure. I merely removed the large fan leaves over the course of a period of a week or more. I was motivated by having done a nute burn ..... but this structure has developed well, I like the result.

if the this you are referring to is my plant then ... yes .... I think so. The basis to lolloping is to accentuate the development of large single colas .... though the multi branching I think can also be included in thast categorization?

A true lollipop will have the lower 1/3 of all growth removed leaving only the big cola.

at what times would you remove this 1/3 growth? now a cola is a grow shoot right?

I think a lot of people remove a lot of branching just before flowering. You want to do a follow up cleaning in week 3ish.

Yeah even though I think it could still be done during flowering phase,it would stress the plant and mess with the bud prod. So if done during veg your not even in flower so the plant is not producing buds at the time so wouldn be as harmful to your yeild in my opinion.. plant is still busy building stems and leaves,not that precious green we all desire, so the less stress during flow.. would be the best bet I think.

use the small branches for more clones,then in 2 weeks when you see new growth from those spotts you should trim off the new growth again and then no more pruning.
