Hey! So I am 22 days into flowering and wondering what to do about all the extra and spindly leaf growth. The mistake first began when I started growing before completely finishing the grow room. I did not top or train, so by the time I started flowering, I was dealing with 6' plants. To help solve some of the problems, I began to bend the stalks down, and then I added another 600w system. Yet still there is quite a bit of foilage, and spindly branches that seem to be 'useless'; and no, or very little light reaches them. Is it ok to trim leaves, and cut branches off this late into flowering? And if so, is the standard of never more then 1/3 of the plant still applicable? I hope to increase air circulation, while at the sametime allowing the light to penetrate further. I have read a few articles concerning some of this, but most of the time refers to the veg cycle. I am interested in hearing peoples personal expierience. Thanks.
