In my case, that usually happens when I don't prune correctly and bud sites are left bellow the shadow level. I also chop to that level and leave the popcorn for another month if that happens to me.
How's everyone doing? Today was trimming time
My second attemp at topping is doing great, asi I lost no branches this time (but almost snapped one). Big one is auto mazar, the other two are auto lemon kix. I also have oregano and other cooking herbs in the tent.
Hope to see more people jump...
