My original plan was to veg these plants for one week and then throw them into 12/12. I was going to trim the lower side growth and concentrate on growing a big single cola on each one. Well, my plans got sidetracked and they were vegged for an extra week. When I switched them to 12/12 I decided to not trim the lower side shoots because they had grown surprisingly well and were only about 1.5" below the top growth at that point. Now after being in 12/12 for 16 days, and stretching like crazy, they are fully into flower and I'm thinking that I should have trimmed them. With plants this size would I be yielding a lot more if I had given them the full lollipop treatment?
I know they look kind of ragged. It's bagseed... and they have been nute burned as seedlings, attacked by cats, gotten rootbound, and a couple of them have been fried a time or two by the HPS.
