Pruning advise please

So I have 3 in flower and I trimmed up the bottom 4 or 5 inches will this affect the growth for a couple days? First time I have ever done this and I want to have an idea of what to expect

@Sirsmokes It’s my first grow, and I trimmed mine, sort of, when I took some clones, and they seemed unaffected. I think your girls will be fine. Someone mentioned dipping honey on the exposed ends that were trimmmed for fastest healing. Hope that helps. Kelp extract helps them bounce back as well.

@Sirsmokes
A picture always helps
When you say you turned up the bottom 4-5 inches
Do you mean you removed all growth down low on your plant ?
If so the plant will focus all it energy on upper bud sites and no longer waste energy trying to get the small growth down low to grow big and tall
If possible posts picture please
Here one of my plants at 6-1/2 feet tall

I have a 24k auto at 5wks just started blooming and I plan to remove the 2 lower branches to focus more growth on the ones with better potential for larger buds.

I previously trimmed up larger inside leaves. I’m also going to attach wires from outside upper branches to the pot rim to spread for better light penetration. Hope all continues well on your grow.

Nice then your good bro
@Sirsmokes doing this forces plant to focus on top buds
Keep the bottom clean :+1: I’ll do a little maintenance once a week to clear any small stuff trying to reveg
Try logging out then back it then try to post a pic also maybe cropping the pic a little smaller will help justa few. Ideas
