I am planning to remove the big leave (shown in day 21 - big leave picture pink-highlighted) to give more light to the little branch below it (marked in yellow). This is the end of the 3rd week and it is an autoflower, what do you think? It's left plant in pic day 21 - morning

Hey i would never remove a leaf that is still full of nutrients and energy. The light that must come to the buds is a mhytos that will never end :-(. Just google photosynthesis. The bud grows through the nutrients that are given to it that contain the leaves :-) the leaves therefore need the light. And even if many persist in the opinion that the buds do not grow otherwise or whatever 😅 I wonder why they cut the leaves off you instead of simply tying them up or down :-)

Salut le jardinier ! ton dessin est bien fait et il montre bien la feuille qu'il faut couper pour laisser la lumière passer. je n'ai pas l'habitude de couper mes feuilles mais je commence a en comprendre l'utilité et j'aurais fait comme toi. bonne chance a toi bella ciao

Apparently with auto flowers it’s best to just try move and trap the fans out of the way rather than removing them altogether.

Привет, бро! ОТЛИЧНАЯ идея! Веточка хорошо развита у листа который ты собираешься удалить, можно смело действовать! Но старайтесь не удалять много веерных листьев на растении, они являются запасом элементов на будущее. Поддерживаю тебя, бро! 👌 👍
