    I normally lollipop them but have been so busy with work and other projects that I've got this far in and haven't touched them . I now have a bit more time and the bottoms have the usually yellowing and drying leaves and scraggly bits which ill thin out but is it ok or worthwhile at this late stage to thin it .I've never left it this late so don't know if it'll be worth while or nit

    No worries I strip out throughout the flower I also leave some lower popcorn to sample before harvest to get just the right high and save me touching the main colas.

    The thing is in the wild animals would be taking lumps out not to mention bugs and human activity lol, so they have a defensive mech for this just don’t go crazy gently as you go

    Happy growing"

    I can't see where it would hurt anything. JMO
