Help defoliation sugar leaves

[Grantyjames23]

Hi I got carried away with trimming my plants to day they seems quite close to harvest so I decided to go mad with trimming off fan leaves and sugar leaves. What should I do should I cut them down or will they survive ????

The amount of surface area needed for optimal photosythesis with cannabis is very small, large pants need lots of leaves smaller plants... not as many. And at the later stages of life , thye need almaot none as very little photosythesis or conversion of light to usable energy is needed...

You will be fine, just dont go rambo on the rest or next time...

If you have 10 plants and 5 you didnt dedoilate and 5 you did, you would find very little difference in Quality contrast versus actuat plant health, over the 3-6 month time line your plant is alive.

That is a shame as they look close but not ready. It looks like you did a full wet trim as if you just harvested them. In the end there is no going back and the plants look nice but a bit early to chop. I would leave them as Samwell Seed Well suggests and see how they respond. With almost no leaves left it is hard to say exactly how they will react but time will tell. You have hit the same pot hole many do, growing can drag on and people tend to get anxious towards the end. This is a pretty common issue that you share with so many others so don't feel bad. You got this far so be proud, all things with growing are learning moments. Good luck.
