  1. I'll be exactly three weeks into flowering tomorrow, and i was wondering if i should be trimming off lower fan leaves. i cant post pictures right now because they are on their lights off time, but ill post tonight. ive heard several opinions on trimming leaves, but i want a solid answer. thanks!:wave:
     
  2. I've heard mixed opinions as I was wondering about the same thing. I've opted out to not cut any leafs personally. The buds don't care for the light, the leafs do.
     
  3. I've read bending them gently, or lsting them to the side to allow more light in is better for the plants health. Removing leaves could stress the plant and cause it to put its energy in to healing and taking energy away from flowering.

    I was wondering the same thing because some of my leaves are blocking bud sites and I think i am going to start moving some out of the way with string/twist ties/paper clips
