Anything that is dead remove! The plant will waste energy using that leaf when the leaf really has no purpose. Remove the leaf, and if you want you can do a light defoliation during that time if its not too late in flower. There wont be any stress or issues with taking these water leaves away. You will be rocking and rolling like a champ before you know it! Great work so far, keep it going!

Hey there I recently had a small issue with damaged leaves and I removed the leaf with a pair of cutters...but just up to the new growth nodes in the "crotch of the leaf" and the new growth seemed to really take off after the absence of the damaged leaves. Happy growing, I hope it straightens out for you.

Yes you can take all the fan leaves burn or not. And it will help the lower buds get more light and grow big. Good one Happy growings

Would you leave a dead piece of skin on your body, or remove it ? 😀 Yes, dead leafs are not useful since they cannot absorb energy anymore. I'll be around, good luck with this baby !

Yes, removed dead or heavily damaged leaves. It should help increase light penitration, and the plant will stop trying to fix the leaf and concentrate on other (healthier) parts. Imagine it as exfoliation, but for plants :)

yes, the plant won't put time and effort in that leave anymore when it's removed. that time and effort could go to your buds

With my nutrient burn/lockout, I removed the damaged leaves. I started slow and only removed a few. Then I got a little more aggressive. The mistake I made was leaving the leafs in the grow tent. That will lead to high humidity and mold.

Hi There, let me put it like this if the burning in the other leafs stoped and you controlled the issue, you can remove them as you are in veg they will regrow. If not when your have this kind of issues and or deficiencies, best thing to do is to keep them on till they dry and die, the leafs are packed with important resources that the plant can pull from, Another thing that I suggest is to leave your girl sleep a few hours, by personal opinion and testing they look healthier when given at least 4 hours of dark after the second week of life. If is your first indoor i suggest you grow as naturally as you can, then you build to the next grow with some manoeuvres. Good luck, all the best! Cheers!

Yes take them off so they do not promote fungus later on as the buds swell you don’t want any kind of dead or dying materials to get trapped in with the buds later on

If it's only a burnt tip or so, you can either leave them be or take them off, if the whole leaf is crispy take them off, and give them time to regrow new leaves, a week or so. As long as the new leaves are growing healthy everything will be ok. Before switching to flower let the lower tops reach the higher one. Either doing LST, topping the top most top (or tops) to give time to the lower ones to catch up. Having an even canopy is key to a good harvest. Cheers friend, nice looking plant there.

Hey brother, they seem pretty damaged so yes maybe you can cut them out cause are old lower leaves so no problem with that. New leaves are growing fine? Always take care when it takes to nutrients, sometimes brands recomendations are completely toxic measures. And take a look to Nitrogen levels too :) Keep it up! Happy grow!
