Mephisto Genetics Tidying up?

[stonehead]

just a quick question as above.
At what stage of growth do people tidy up the lower leaves and the little stretchy buds at the bottom the won’t do anything?

Should it be later in flower like day 45 or something?
Iv done some before around day 30 and a couple hermied but most didn’t. Didn’t know if it was too soon

Thanks

It's really up to you I don't remove anything I make tons of hash an that lil underdeveloped bud is perfect for hash,makes it really easy to extract,bubble or oil it's perfect.Alot of reasons why plants hermi sometimes genetics sometimes stress ,even excessive n amounts can cause this but if you believe pruning was causing the problem,I would suggest a slower more gradual pruning only prune small amounts at a time to stress the plant less.

I believe most say do it right after the stretch. That’s when I do and it doesn’t seem to bother them much.

This is what I keep hearing aswell seems most logical really.
Is there a time when it’s too late as judging the finishing of stretch can sometimes be misleading.

Thanks for the prompt help guys

She’ll slow down and look to start flowering more.
