Cut off yellow leaves.

smokingskillsstarted grow question 3y ago

Can I cut off these leaves? I am worried that this is an autoflowering plant and it will be an additional stress for it. But it also seems to me that it is spending some effort to keep these leaves alive and it would be better if it spent this effort on the buds.

I remove dead leaves you will find with larger canpoy alot of leaves dont get light so they do die off if you dont remove them they will become a place where little bugs can hide and they will also give off ethonol I think it is. people do use them as mulh but these people are using living soil methods which is the only really use for dead fan leaves. Best of luck :)

this is “golden leaves 419” it take nutrients from the soil and sending it directly to the buds. Just kidding, remove it asap.

I remove any leaves that are half dead or more and I chop any that are covering bud sites ..if you are worried about stressing the plant try to cut only 1 or 2 leaves every day or 2 .. Goodluck and happy growing ✌️

just pull a bit on it. if it's really dead, it will come off by itself.

When they get to this stage of near death, they are safe to remove and will not cause any stress to your plant by their removal.

50% damaged leaves, remove them. Less than 50%, leave them alone

Help me get her better.Really need some advice on plant 3. She is now showing a lot of yellowing on bottom leaves. But now starting to move up to the top leaves. Can anyone help me get her better? Don’t like seeing her like this. I thought it was lockout at first but looks more like an N deficiency.
