Took me a bit to figure out what to take or leave as well.I love wasting energy!
I need to be more prudent about taking off lower growth. Still learning how to judge what will make it and what won't.
I like to remove most of the growth tips at the nodes all the way up the plant and usually only leave the top couple about a week before I flip.
I have a tendency to over Veg so by pruning that way after the plant is done stretching around day 21 of flower the tips that were at the top of the plant before flip are now at the bottom. I will go back in after the stretch is done and remove any of the lower stuff that’s not getting any light and it leaves me with a plant that looks like Sheds DV.
I’m usually trying to achieve an even wall to wall canopy so it’s the system that seems to work the best for me. I should also mention I keep the bottom 3rd cleaned off during Veg to keep leaves away from the soil and it also makes watering a heck of a lot easier.
