    Should I lollipop these autos?

    I'm having a little space problem with my 4 auto plants (zkittlez, blueberry, og kush and alaskan purple, all from Seedsman), they are getting big now with 35 days and I can't even make LST because there's no room for horizontal spreading. So only the tops are getting light, the lower branches are almost entirely covered. Should I make a lollipop at the smaller lower branches? Or it's too dangerous for the autoflowering plants?
    Here is a photo of my improvised set up.


    Thanks guys ;D

    I would figure a way to spread them out. Build an extension, a whole nother redneck throw together temp tent.... & not plant so DAMN many at a time if your tent is that small. (I'm smilin as I write that- with no malice or judgement cause I'm not one to talk about havin too many plants.) 🤣🤣🤣

      hahaha I'll try to spread them a little bit, but an extension now it's not an option

    I would do a defoliate before i started lollipoping, You can nip off a few of those big fan leaves down thru the center of the plant(outside as well)..that'll give the lower buds some more light. Dont go crazy with the clippers..just a few every couple of days. Give it time to adjust to each trim. Also, you can cut off any really small growth sites at the bottom if they aren't gonna amount to much.

      They look good! Lets a bit more light down through the plant. Just a suggestion for your next grow....maybe go with two plants in that size closet lol. It'll just give you some more room so you can LST them to fill out that space. I always go overboard with the amount of plants i start, and it gets to be a cramped pain in the a** towards the end of the grow. Keep us posted.

    Day 38

    So I decided to try a little more LST, not pulling too hard, just enough to create a little space in the middle of the plants. Looking good so far, thanks again for your help guys

      hi dudes, just updating the photos, now the plants are 44 days old and starting to show some buds. The zkittlez is the bigger one but not showing resin yet, the OG kush on the other hand is starting to smell really skunky. let me know your thoughts on them please! that's my second time growing and I'm really happy to be honest.
      thanks

        hey guys, I'm noticing some yellow leaves, but I think it's just because they are flowering. Should I keep it or remove it?
        thanks!
