Yeah its possible if you start now. I dont reccommend after pistils start showing. Branches tend to thicken and develop a woodlike texture after that.

Hmm looks like you may have a PH issue..or need some Calmag. I never ever ever prune my plants during flowering..will set them back a week or 2..LST is a better Idea..but those plants do not look like they even need it. Let nature take its course..I wouldnt touch them.

First thing you need to do is get rid of ALLLL that tin foil lining the buckets and walls. Tin foil not only increases heat but it does almost nothing to reflect light around the plants. Many people think because of its look that it will reflect alot of light, your better off painting the walls around the grow area the flatest white you can find, it will reflect light much better.

Hey man you will probably want to trim up the bottom of your plants. Generally veg is for training and once flower starts yoh want to leave them alone. However you can get some good training in during the initial 12/12 stretch with lst and/or supercropping. After the 12/12 stretch I like to trim up the bottom shit that will become popcorn. I take off sun leafs and bud sites on the lower 15-20% of the plants. It is very easy to over do this if you are new, make sure to leave the lower branches that extend tops up to the middle of the plants height or so. They will still stretch up some and grow into decent colas.
