Infected Leaves. To remove part of the leaf or whole leaf?

I had had pests and disease issues my second grow of Autoflowers. I believe it was hemp russet mites which spread disease on parts of many of my leaves. Would it be alright to remove only the part of the leaf that was infected or to remove the entire leaf?

In a situation like this, I say remove the whole leaf. Your plant will try to repair damaged leaves and use energy in the effort. Energy that can be better used somewhere else. So, take off the damaged leaves and keep inspecting your plant to make sure those pesky critters are completely gone. I hope this helps. Good luck!

High, Cut the whole leave. You do not want your plant to use more energy for this leave then that she gains from the energy that the leave can produce. Just focus on the healthy leaves and they will give your plant the energy to produce big, fat and juicy buds! Happy Growing! 😋

I'll suggest to only cut off the infected areas of the plant and check the entire leaf for any other infection's. but only cut away the infected parts, it should be fine it will heal in a few days quick.

Which leaf is it,this offending leaf may be the difference between life and death,should I operate? What if I cut it and it gets infected? What if I take the whole leaf and it only had one on a twig and it just died? Best bet is to ask someone sensible,but I'd get a cup of Coco before you start reading and I don't mean the growing sort. How important is the leaf? Is it a VIP or more of a commoner, it was the best of times and worst of times,we will fight them on the beaches,my answer is best oh please choose my answer,I spouted enough pure crap to earn 20 glass bongs 🤣🤣🤣
