Hi, is it a good idea to remove the lower leaves on an autoflower? I'm growing mephisto a v t and they are going well, just wondering if there is any benefit to put the energy where it's needed?

Cheers

Hello and welcome aboard! It sure is a good idea, it's a technique called "Lollipopping", where you'll want to remove leaves and potentially small buds below certain height in order to focus the energy, as you say, where it's needed.

At what stage is it too late to remove the leaves, should I post a picture so you could have a look please?
