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

Persistent issues - wilted leaves, light-green splotches, brown roots
My plant has these issues. I've rinsed off the roots in case it was nutrient buildup on roots, which I still believe to be the case. I have given this plant a good amount of nutrients the week before. Does this appear to be a deficiency? Any ideas? Thanks all for responding

Leaf Septoria is it worth treating it if it's on an extra plant or should it be culled
I have an extra plant outside my grow cage and it has leaf septoria. It was neglected to begin with. Is it worth treating with copper based fungicide or should it be culled. I have no experience with this. Someone please help.

Yellow edges
I had just dealt with a calmag deficiency but adding biobizz calmag, but now the leaves are starting to yellow on the edges. Is it still a calcium or magnesium problem, or is it something else?

Magnesium deficiency? How to cure it?
Is this a sign of magnesium deficiency (my other plant has similar spots)? If so, I've read online (on the Canna nutes website) that I should spray the leaves with Epsom Salt (2% solution): is this correct? Any other suggestions? Thanks in advance

some babies (BAM #1 - AGB#1-2-3) have begun to yellow the leaves at the top, i don't know what it can be :( I tried to give them only water but the problem seems get worst, so i thought that maybe can be too much light and tried to set to 18/4 instead 21/3. Any advice?

Still to early to tell? Noticed yesterday and have slightly worsened today. Not sure the issue but potentially magnesium? Getting close to top dress also.
Only on 1 of 3 plants so far. On older growth after getting dose of Recharge the other day. Maybe an N problem as I also use 484? Or mag? Using CalMag every other watering in RO at 150ppm as the soil has some cal and mag. Also getting close to top dress time maybe something else?

should I be concerned about this hole on my leaf?
hole showed up today. wondering if this looks like a pest did it or if its something that just happens from time to time. I read that holes can appear in leaves when there isn't enough potassium, but I'm feeding with molasses so that shouldn't be an issue.

is it preflowering?
Hi, my plant is two weeks old and I noticed these little leave things, I’m worried that it’s starting to flower this early or something. Is it normal? Are these just small leaves? Please help. :) (I circled it)

Random Stoned Thoughts!!!!!
Here is one of the 1st leaves from the GSCE's life "Scars" and all. Has anyone thought about or actually purposefully let some of the 1st growth grow til harvest as kind of a timeline to look back and see what the plant has eventually overcome? Thanks for feeding my high thoughts
