Maybe but if you are uncertain you can wrap in black tape or put in a can cooler as Silky suggested

Should I cut the first leaves to maximize the growHello everyone
A friend told my that I should cut the first leaves of my plants (the first that came out from the plants, not the cotyledons)
What do you think about this idea ?
And can this really maximize the size of the future buds ?
Thank you for your responses ! :)Leaves. Other

I've noticed some pistils starting to turn on the upper bud sites, see the last photo above. My question is, is this ok only 2 weeks in to flower, or have I burnt the pistils with feeding, or lights? It's my first grow, so I'm trying to learn as much as I can. Thanks!!Week 5

Hi! :)
Trichomes are pretty clear, although some milky ones appears, buds have almost all pistils brown.
What do you think? Should I harvest today, or next week?
PS: Why some trichomes doesn't have that "head"? Under microscope i can sometimes see a lot of them without head.Week 19
