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

Some of my newer leaves are much lighter in color and seem to be most affected by these spots, my largest plant is the worse affected. Have red stems, lower leaves are looking healthy green though so scared to give much more nutes, feeling stuck. Maybe small mites? Ideas?

dark, curled downwards and brown fan leaves
Why are the fan leaves dark, curled downwards and showing brown marks originating from the edges? Had an issue of dark and curled leaves for a week or 2, did think it was getting better (N2 deficiency) but now suddenly after not watering for a day the leaves are going brown.

Odd looking leaves
My plant showed true leaves finally but looks odd Could anyone confirm if it is not OK? If not, is this something that could be fixed or it is just bad luck with the seed?

2 of the very bottom leaves yellowed and fell, and 2 other started to show yellow parts, It seems to have stopped now. Wondering if it's due to the high heat and very dry air, or if it's nutrient related. Thanks!

Leaves looking droopy.
The leaves turned droopy when I visited the tent today. Could it be underwatering? Currently, I am watering every 48 hours 1L water until I get a slight runoff. After 2 days the soil is pretty much dried out as I got told that should be done with BioBizz nutrients.

Leaf discoloration
There is a purple/blue tint to the tips of my older leaves. New growth coming in lighter green. Slightly red and purples stems only at base of oldest leaves. Leaves also taco curling slightly. Thinking phosphorous deficiency at this point, maybe combination N toxicity and heat?

Difference in size between two plants in Week 1
Hello fellow growers! Does anyone know why there is quite a difference in the size of leaves between the two seedlings? They were planted at the same time and are treated the same. Could it be a defective seed or will the smaller plant catch up later?
