Just curious if any of you guys have used this method before. i tied my girls down through out veg. Barely entering the second week of flowering. I was thinking of trimmin them up this weekend. Outdoor grow btw.
Where the vets at??

They're packed in pretty close. the lower halves don't receive much light. If i tie them down I'd be pulling them in to eachother..so it may be counter productive. I should have mentioned that.
I'm surprised no one has done this. Guess I'll post my results.

I guess what a friend of mine does could be looked at as a sort of limited lollypopping. He just makes sure his larger plants have 4 or 5 main heads and starts chopping off the lower branches.... which now that I think about it is lollypopping, I guess I just had an image in my head of SoG style plants.
/And IIRC you and I are in roughly the same area.

Do you have any pictures of how big the plants are? How much light are the lowest branches getting? How low to the ground are they?
Can't really answer the question without knowing the situation. If the plants are already flowering I think I'd just leave them alone.

She makes a good point - if they're a strain that's acclimated to the climate we may have had enough cold nights to start them flowering.

I don't have anything outside, my buddy I was just talking about does. He's got some NYC Diesel x Skunk #1 clones that're gonna be fucking trees and I can't even remember what all else.
I've got some Grape Ape indoor that I've been waiting to flower cus another friend has been saying he's gonna lend me his 250 but I'm about to go out and buy my own here if he flakes much longer. I actually started a grow log but haven't really added anything to it yet, probably get a few pics of them up tomorrow.

Yeah I'm told in addition to taking awhile to finish it just DRINKS nitrogen in early flower so that might also have been an issue.
