Hi there! No, you can tuck a few fan leaves a day it should not hurt the plant. Make sure to remove only the leaves that are creating shades onto your bud sites, and act by priority. Hope this helps, happy growing!

As long as you go easy, then no. What you want to do is remove big leaves that are casting shade on to lower leaves connected to lower buds.

When should I think about flipping these? They are just getting tall enough to be tucked under the screen. I was hoping to give it another week to let the small one catch up a bit seeing as it's 5 days younger than the rest.
