You can clean them up a little bit further if you want, but it's not necessary and I highly doubt it will increase your yield or the flower size of the top colas at this point. If you leave that plant as is and you light it up well enough to where some decent penetration can occur then those lower buds will yield a decent amount and bump your yield up. I wouldn't recommend doing that on every type of plant, but chem and OG plants can grow some decently hard lower nugs especially when given even a little bit of decent light intensity. You just need to keep an eye out for hermaphrodite and intersex flowers if you do decide to keep anything below the fifth node.

Thanks Mrsmokestacks! I'll just leave it as is this grow. I think I figured out why my bud growth has been slow/smaller. My flowering temps are averaging 74 degrees lights on where as I have been reading that around 85 degrees is optimal with led's. Hopefully since I'm just starting week 5 they will start packing on weight since I have just adjusted my temps..

sounds like its enough air circulation, i think the first images you posted they seemed more denseley clustered, those inner nuglets near the center/main stalk annoy me so i clean them out so theyre not just growing into each other, but you shouldnt have any issues aside from possible hidden male flowers in the clusters like aforementioned

I would definitely get your canopy temps up towards 80. 85 is a bit high IMHO, but shouldn't be terrible. Keep your light intensity up until they are done bulking. Around day 56/60 I start dimming mine and bringing temps down. Also, don't let your nighttime temps dip more than 10ish degrees Fahrenheit unless you are in the last couple weeks of bloom. Higher vpd will bulk flowers, but also increase risk of molds and mildews. Also, IME there is a tradeoff in quality (trichome/oil/terp production) when using VPD to achieve large flowers. I find a happy medium. Which for me is usually no higher than 82°F and no higher than 60% relative humidity if I can help it. Of course there's always a spike when the lights go off. It looks like you have enough air circulation to mitigate many of those issues though.

Straight up animal shit/rancid trash, it was slightly disturbing. I’ve never smelled anything like it nor had anyone that got a chance to sample. I grew it as a joke looking for a foul aroma but this was something else.

That being said it was some of the best stuff I’ve grown, extremely potent yet well balanced and seemed to work wonders when I had headaches.

I would like to echo some of what you said. I grew out one last year and it was a mutant plant. It did not smell rancid or gross it carried that urkle type smell with it. It had an absolutely instant head high. Turned my brain on in a good way. And left an awesome sweet incense smell in the air. I have another one in Veg no mutant traits I’m excited for this one because the lead structure is completely different. Hong Kong phooey rules!

I hope you find that dog shit leaner, those genetics have some special stuff.

He probably doesn't have one right now, but if you find one please post it here! I want to place an order, but I can wait for a sale.

I pulled the trigger on the Chem 91 #12 x Urkle. Purple dog bud is one of my favorites and I am stoked to see how the selected Chem 91 S1 impacts the cross. It was weird paying full price though. I usually wait for sales or go through GLO. Should be the last beans I buy for a while.
