chop or not ?

[everest]

hey guys , what do you think ............. i've got 4 plants 5 weeks left and they are full of buds , each plant has 4 definite colas , its hot in the grow room , should i chop the lower buds off and smoke em ? or should i just wait the 5 weeks ? it's killin me , and to be honest are the lower buds really gonna make it ? any advice would be great .

[newplantdevil]

i reckon u should wait till the top ones are finished then chop em let the little ones finish then chop them

[pipeman]

hey if you want a smoke its there to smoke, so why not. I'd chop just enough of the lower buds as you want and leave the rest to finish.

[everest]

thanks guys , yea i should leave em i know but i'm hangin too get stoned , i think i should of snipped em earlier cos these plants have got buds right down the bottom of the stems , so............... snip,snip get the pan on ........ cheers

why not leave all the buds and cut some leaf off?..make some hash?

[pipeman]

as long as you're only taking hidden leaf down low and still leaving a nice leafy canopy up top to soak up the light. you need a lot of leaf to make hash, I'm not sure that stripping your girls naked mid way though flower would be a good idea.

if possible go buy a bag and leave them alone

The $20 worth you pull off now is gonna be $100 worth in 5 weeks and way better smoke.Show a little patience dude

the temptation of cutting up your plants now will only lead to 50% of your end yeld because once u make a cut u wont stop! in a few days time you'll need more smoke and it'll go on....
