Is it ok to cut off bad leaves on young plants?

  1. I nute burned a few of my babies and im wondering if I should cut off the brown leaves? Its 2.5 weeks old and fairly small... 3" tall.
     
  2. Im wondering the same thing, I burned mine with the lights on just a couple leaves..... I was told I should but idk im gonna wait till I get another opinion lol
     
  3. If the leaves have some good green color they can still function but if they are dead and shrivled i dont see why you couldn't chop it off.
     
  4. whats the benefit to chopping them off anyway?
     
  5. You can chop them off or leave them. Some people prune perfectly healthy leaves in hopes of getting more light through to the plant. Sometimes if you leave dead or dying leaves on the plant that touch the soil, this can invite mold.
     
  6. Mine are under half way burnt so i'll just leave them kuz they are still green and they have lived with it since sprouts.
     
  7. I had some on my plants that were half gold half green. Slowly the worst ones shriveled up so I cut them.
