If your not getting enough good air flow through the plant it may be advisable to remove them lowest leaves touching the soil.

Now is the time to clean them up. You can take a few leaves off that cover bud sites and will help with air flow.

Hey mate, You can but they will come off on their own. I'd just leave them. It wont cause any harm. Mine actually came off today coincidentally!

Dear Members i have a Royal AK before harvest, i'm at the 8th week of the flowering period. I made a picture from the trichomes (last picure), could somebody tell me, should I wait one more week or can I chop it off right now? The picture is taken from a side bud.

Defoliate more?
Should I defoliate more? side branching is intense and I'm not sure if it will result in larf or actual nug. Trimmed a lot of the weak looking side braching that was not exposed to light. Still looks rather bushy for my liking but I don't want to stunt them or reduce yields.

I know I am nearing the end of this journey, that started. Many months ago with some seedy weed. I also know I need to be patient, however should I partially harvest the larger plant? The smaller plant isnβt there yet as is the lower sections of the big plant, any views?

Defoliacion con LST en exterior?
Is it necessary to apply defoliation when we use LST outdoors? Or is the sunlight able to reach all the branches and leaves? I plan to take them outside tomorrow, and I'll have about 8 hours of direct sunlight.

Remove or tie down fan leaves?
Hi guys, what's the better option, removing big ass fan leaves to give bud nodes more exposure to light or tie fan leaves down? I tied a few down but don't know if that's a good idea. Help is greatly appreciated ;)

Do you remove small "buds" when doing defoliation?
When doing defoliation, are you removing these small "buds" (see pictures) that are not getting enough light?
