This is the process of stripping all small buds and leaves from a branch except those at the top of the canopy so that the branch resembles a lollipop. The idea is that the plant will spend more resources on the cola at the top of the stem, as less is wasted on small "popcorn" buds that will not yield much as they are in the shade of the canopy. This technique is more suited to photo flowering strains, as they have more time to recover from the process. Alternatively, smaller buds can be left to continue growing after an initial harvest of the main colas, until they are mature enough for a second harvest.
===Screen of green (ScrOG)===
ScrOG or Screen of Green is a training method where a large trellis (a.k.a mesh, screen, net) is placed over the cultivar so that the branches can be more easily shaped to form a flat canopy. This technique is often paired with mainlining.
===Sea of green (SOG)===
A method of planting a large number of plants so that there is a high density of cultivars under a trellis.
