answered grow question 7y ago
The cotyledons are enclosed in a little sac. It usually sheds with the shell but sometimes it sticks to the leaves like yours. If you moisten it then it will get soft, but it won't hurt anything. Good luck on your grow!

Fan leaves in early
I’m only 5 days into flower but could do with some fan leaves removing to let light in underneath. However I only just defoliated the day before flower roughly 6 days ago. Would it still be ok to clip a few off?

Is of sometimes normaal that the 2 leaves you have on your baby plant are standing upwards? Like a closed flower, if you know what I mean? 2 are normal but 1 is doing that...

Weird looking leaves
Regarding plant #2. Leaves seem really deformed. Very thick canopy, very short, abnormal leaves? And then what to do with it? Continue to grow? Cut it down?

Should I defoliate light-blocking leaves from my NL auto?
My NL auto is at D40 and is growing well. She's developing a good lot of cola's with nice bud sites. Up untill now I've been able to tuck the leaves away, but it's getting more difficult to keep all bud sites cleared as she keeps growing. Should I tactically defoliate?

4 leafs who need to leaf, but may they leaf? to leaf or not to leaf
Hello friends. I have a question. About 4 leaves that are blocking the light to the branches under those four leaves. Please see pic: 4 leaves. Can I cut them off? Or will this damage the yield in any way? Please see pic: 2,3,4 to see where those leaves come from. Thank you! Cheers!

Looking for opinions on a try of LST and a thought about taking off big fan leaves from the top
Had a shot at LST training one of my girlfriend plants, just wondering opinion from people if it has been done correctly. Also had a thought to take off two big fan leaves from the top to get more light onto nodes, not quite sure if that would be good idea

Defoliating dense and bushy plant in flower
I think I know what I can do better next time, but for now, what can I do to manage such a dense and bushy plant? I defoliated five days ago, but she keeps bouncing back quickly. Should I continue removing leaves as needed, or would that cause too much stress? Day 25

I could use a little feedback about my variegated leaves. I provided pictures. I would say she has about 10% variegation. Ph, PPM, Temps, Humidity, are all within normal parameters. I'm running a 260wQB in a 4x4 tent. She is about 20" from the light. Other plants are fine.

Bushy Genetics
How do you deal with a genetically bushy strain, especially if you plan to ScrOG? Do you knuckle up all nodes but the tips, then LST? Or let him grow and give him time? (My OG Kush needs some advice)

Should I do a pre harvest defoliation a week before harvest?
What are the benefits and consequences of defoliating a week before harvest? Is it good or bad? I have tons of foliage up top and need it to go away. It's too late in flower, but a week before will open up the canopy to the lower bud sites. Any and all help is welcome. Thanks!

What should I do with my plants that have grown thicc to receive more light? - First Grow
My plants (1 auto, 1 photo) have grown a lot and are now pretty thicc. Should I remove some leaves to allow more light directly on the new growths from the nodes? More agressive LST? Leave them alone? They have grown in a weird pattern because of my LST attempts (see pic).

Defoliate the center or leave her alone?
My girl is short and dense due to early manifolding and LST. The center is crowded and there's not much light penetration or air flow there, though I do have fans going. I'm tempted to defoliate some older leaves crowding the center. Don't want to stunt it, though. Thoughts?
