Should I trim some fan leaves?

Snapfeststarted grow question 3 years ago

Anyone out there think I should thin her out a little? To me she looks a bit thick with fan leaves for her 15" height.

hey there snapfest, since the leafs already have 5 fingers , pruning wont really help with the final product, so if it doesnt help, dont do it. these gens in particular are not that bushy so hold off until you're well into flowering for the time being. hope this helps ! 🚀

At this stage they need all the light they can get to grow. I would leave them on. The color looks very healthy. Just look you get enough air cycling and she should be happy. greetings

5 Finger Death Punch Is it OK that my first set of fingers, well other then the start leaves and the two singles, came out as 5 and not 3? Sorry, I am not up on the correct terms, fingers meaning the jagged leaves. This is my first grow.

Nodes and Leaves that don't receive light, cut off ?So my plant has grown pretty big in last few weeks and theres just alot of leaves ans nodes that i think are useless to the plant because they barely get any light, and bending them towards the light doesnt work because they grow too slow. CAN and/or SHOULD i cut them off ?

Are you betting on too much too late or good work?These last three days of the week, will be crucial to see how leaves on the tops of the branches react and if they can stimulate the even growth of flowers along the height of the branches. I've pruning too much (or too late) to hope for beautiful branches full of big flowers?

Defoliation during first weeks of flower?Hello growers, hope you are all doing great! I have a question about defoliating: What and how much? I know the theory, big fan leaves blocking light for lower bid sites, but how much is too much? Could i take like half of the fan leaves today, and another big amount next week?
