Taking off fan leaves

Kushk
Kushkstarted grow question 4 years ago
Was wondering if and how and when to take fan leaves out so that the bud spots can get better light ? Also wondering if it will stress autoflower plants out. Thanks in advance

you can do it in bloom when the buds are formed. and it will stress a bit but you can do it

Autoflowers are on fixed timeline (generally 70-90days from seed) Cutting anything will remove energy from the plant and lose potential yield. Leave this method to more experienced growers. & Apply it to Photoperiod plants, NOT autoflowers!!! read guide about LST (Low stress training) and apply it for better yields with autoflowers. https://www.royalqueenseeds.com/blog-low-stress-training-n100
