I have been flowering for 5 days, and was wondering if at this point is there anything I can do to get more light to lower leaves. I read some about trimming but there is a lot of conflicting info out there. Any help would be appreciated.

I'm kind of new so I'm not really sure but could you possible just cut the lower ones for clones?

Tie the cola branches down and allow the light to hit the core of the plant. I just did this with my plant, more so because of height issues, but in doing so it has made the colas from all the branches tied down go into turbo growth. Trust you won't be disappointed, I now have a 14" plant with about 10 colas starting.


p.s. mist the plant branches before doing this, and do a gradual tie down so you don't snap the branches just bend them.

so when you say tie the cola branches down are you referring to the ones up higher or the ones that are not recieving light

I will take some pictures for you to see as soon as I can. But ya tie down the highest branches and spread them out so they all get full amounts of light, and you will notice that anywhere from a few hours to a day or 2 the flowers will turn upwards towards the light. The lower branches won't be your main producers of bud anyways.
