I personally give them a lil tug. If they pop off then take um. If it feels like you have to force or cut it off. Leave it till it's ready! 🤘😤

if they are 50% yellow than yes because it takes some nutrients from the soil waisting it...if you take them off the plant will grow better

Dry spots on sugar leaves, plant late in flowering, also spotted on another one in the same reservoir
Hi guys, my plant is around 2-3 week before harvest. What is the cause of the these dry spots on some of the smallest sugar leaves on my plant? The ppm might be too much and is around 1200-1300ppm. PH is 6.0-6.1 I've spotted it on one other plant in the same reservoir. Thank you

Weird new leaves
One of the two leaves from the newest growth came out curled and crisp. The other leaves seem a bit canoed as well. Any ideas on what is causing this and how to solve? It’s been outside with supplemental lights at night. Too much heat, water, etc? Please help.

Is this OK? Weird plant behavior
Plant biggie has always been taller, but really is so different than the others from her seed pack. Is she OK? She seems happy AF, but isn't putting much into anything besides GIANT LEAVES 🤣 is everything all right with her and the other plants? I have zero experience.

What's eating my plants?
It looks like there is a small bite mark on my plant. Presumably this is from an insect. It's an indoor grow but I'm using soil, melted snow water and my grow room is off the garage. Any thoughts on what this is and whether/how it should be dealt with? TIA.
