Should I trim off the damaged leaves?

Should I trim off the bad/damaged leaves or leave them on? I'm not sure if it will help or stunt the growth even more(I don't know if that possible at this point but still). Do they even have a function after they got damaged the way they have? Please check my diary for pics

I hate to say this, but you should give up on this plant. Being an autoflower, it should have gone into flower a month ago. She's never going to produce any flowers for you and she's just taking up your time and your worry. Pop another seed and move forward. You switched nutes from week 1 to week 2 and this may have been a mistake. First of all, you gave nutes a little too early... autoflowers don't require nutes for the first couple of weeks and then, when you DO start them, you need to start them off about 1/4 strength to see if they're going to handle them and adjust. Keep the grow nutes going into pre-flower and at the same time, start your bloom nutes (about week 3-4) and start cutting the grow nutes back when they go into flower (week 4-5). If you're going to continue using Fox Farm, when you cut out Grow Big, start adding a small amount of Tiger Bloom... this will give the plant SOME nitrogen but not enough to lockout calcium. And as far as Big Bloom goes, I love that nute but 4T is a lot - max out at 3T and no more than 2tsp of Tiger Bloom. Things just got jumbled up on this particular grow and you did everything you could think of to save her - kudos for that! But now it's time to let her go, you'll have so much more knowledge for the NEXT grow that I know it will be great! Good luck!

Unfortunately, this plant is genetically flawed and will not give you any meaningful results. The damage from over feeding just makes the situation worse. It is probaby best to cut your losses and start again, rather than hoping that something may come of this plant. Nothing you do at this point will remedy the situation, with defoliation not achieving anything either.

granny is absolutely right. Hiding your mistakes, don't make plant healthy, so defoliation is only for healthy plants. there is no male parts, but so stressed plant can show them trust stoners if they grow well ;) its a very damaged girl in the beginning of flower, i never saw good results from such picture , pop new seed, while trying to finish that one. you would need some clearing and optimizing branches quantity or position, but now just leave her alone , with plain phed water cycles, do at least 2-3, wet-dry-wet-dry, before you return to feeding schedule . Good luck !
