Jamaican plants r puzzling me

one question, when i started to flower, should i have just cut off maybe the bottom 3 to 4 inches on the leaves around the stem? i see some buds that grew around there, but they are slow developing, and will be shit compared to the rest of the buds.

Should I have cut those lower branches off?
should i now?
 
question...
Glock23, 30x microscope?
uh oh i went to radio shack and got a mag glass, with 5 10 and 15x...
i could see the trichs and stuff and determine them to be more clear than cloudy, but not the kind of pic i've seen on ic...
i thought 30 would be too much, and 10 was the max u could use...

Am I just insane?

I believe this will answer all your questions. :)

You can take off the branches with popcorn buds. I usually don't take anything off. If you take leaves off, there's less chlorophyll for photosynthesis, less sugars produced, and therefore, less vegetative and floral matter (meaning you get less buds). Some people take lower branches off because they feel that it focuses the plants' energy on the tops. Food for thought.

Looks decent! How did it compare to the bud you got the seeds from? You owe us a smoke report ;) Are you gonna cure the buds?
 
smoke report

smoke report

:dueling: effects: good kb effects from some sweet skunky jamaican bud.
it wasn't headie stuff, but good. still drying them, but i smoked some buds i dried for 3 days a paper towel and that worked very well.

taste: i smoked some when it wasn't flushed, like when i just popped a branch off. nasty. better as it dries obviously. it will become sweeter.

buds have a stink to em when u tear em, fresh and kinda fruity.

i stil lhave the 2 big ones left, and they are taking a bit longer.
they smell a bit hazy, not a skunky smell, maybe a hint of fruityness.
i'll dry this up complety and send a smoke report.
