1st time Lollypop Help

[veritas629]

Ima no auto expert, but im sure the consensus is not to scrog auto's?

...but if you do, start a diary, ima keen to see how they would go....or not go....

I've grown Autos exactly once, but I did use a SCROG net and topped them each twice. My experience is limited here, but I think newer Auto strains are more tolerant to training. The Mephisto Sour Stomper and Samsquanch OG reacted just like my photoperiod usually do. They filled up the net and I had a good harvest.

If Afghan Bob says it's not really viable I would take his word for it

When I first got to know Bob online he really didn't know Jack shit

But 5 or 6 yrs later , through trial and error and sheer persis
tence he has become to go to man anything autos

Moral of story , is Bob says it's so , it's so !

You want advice ask him

It's a touchy subject for sure.

I have a strange ritual of removing a few lower shoots during pre flower stretch and transition. No idea whether it helps or hinders tbh, and probably just lowers my overall yield as I could be making edibles with those popcorn buds. It just seems to be something I fell into a habit of doing.

I generally don't touch many leaves at that point though.

That's a nice specimen mate

I actually clean up the bottoms of my plants just because it makes it easier to water em!!
Lollipoping is usually done inside with a net because the canopy covers anything below!!
Your plants are so squat it wouldn't be possible to Lollipop them and they are autos outside!!!
Don't waste ya time mate!!

Next gro m8 not this one.
Anyways it pretty obvious no one here likes lollypop which is groovy so I will take the advice and not scrog my autos....pretty easy really

[Love to grow]

I’m in the minority here I do strip the bottom of my plants indoor not outdoor not autos though I find you don’t gain or lose any weight but what I do gain is about 8hrs in trimming time not having to trim all the larf last grow I had 4 clones of the same strain cleaned 1 right up to the top node before the flip and it turned out the fattest of the lot I also stripped 1 of leaf at the 3 week mark won’t ever do that again looked a different strain with golf ball size nugs not colas anyways try n learn I say it gets boring doing the same thing over n over
