I also bend the leaves until that is they get in the way to much and then i chop them off.
Bend first chop later.
I have never noticed any ill health or slow down from minor leaf removal.

Dont forget that cannabis adapts to its environment very quickly and easily and the plant has evolved to lose leaf due to insects,predators and weather conditions and puts out more than is actually needed for highly controlled indoor grows.
Anyway this is just my opinion and i have no evidence of any of it:blsmoke:

Hiya natmoon :)

Great morning here. Sunny but freezing. Its so cold that we had a mouse sneak into our house last night :o
so I stayed on my 'puter downloading clematis pics until my cat got it :hump: What a wuss huh? lol:mrgreen: You don't HAVE to answer that one nat.:?

Anyway about the leaves and clipping.
I bend my leaves out of the way as well as stems to not only get them more light but to strengthen them.

I do not cut off HUGE fan leaves at this time because I cut 3 to 4 tops off and I have found myself, that sometimes it can stres it just enough to cause balls on an otherwise female plant. It sometimes happens to my outdoor plants during the last flowering cycle because I have cut off too many shoots. this I don't mind so much because at this time they do no damage.

With my indoor grow since I have limited light i top them about every 2 or 3 weeks and feel that since these are a main source of energy for the plant (chlorophyll) I prefer to just tir them loosely.

So basically I just do what has worked for me in the past and when I find new improved methods, I use them.

Thanks for your comments nat .
Check out my clematis pic in my profile.
I find that clematis and tomatoes have very similar requirements (as do these plants) and I have had plenty of experience with them. :) you gotta see 'em.

Have a good one:mrgreen::blsmoke::peace:

Ive never noticed any herminess from cutting of my leaves but every strain is different i suppose and if you know your specific strain doesn't respond well to cutting your probably right.

Pics of your flowers are cool.
I have just shooted a load of st johnstons daisys for my missis in the propagator and just left them on a chair in the same cupboard with my weed.
Unfortunately some yeast and sugar jizz blew out of the bottle onto one corner of the tray and a few have died:mrgreen:

These flowers are some weird looking things i tell you.
I will put some pics up later of these weird flowers they have some kind of weird looking leaf material almost like they are not even real but made out of plastic or something they look like they sparkle:confused:

Anyway best of luck with however you go:peace::joint:

Well the funny thing is that I have NEVER known what strains I have had but after a while I suppose one just gets used to the same growing method.

I have a friend that I have known for 30 years and he is often telling me I am too much of a fuss-pot over my plants and just to cut the leaves off but I don't until near the end when they start yellowing.

The main leaves that I loosely tied I think are from mango plants and I am telling you; they are the biggest leaves I have ever seen. :o They are so HUGE that the branches underneath were starting to droop a little becauser of lack of light and if I were to have cut these off, it would not have left many leaves left for the plant to feed off.

Here are a couple of pics to show you what i mean.

P.s. would love to see your misses flowers :)

Ok i just done some pics of them i only planted them a week or so ago and the jizz has ruined a small corner of the tray.
They have no flowers on yet but they are definitely some weird things.
Where the yeast jizz spilt out of the top of the bottle they are all dead and the soil is beginning to get moss on in only one day.
So they will be leaving my grow area in the next few minutes.
I saw some pics of these flowers whent hey are grown and they look weird then as well and they close their heads up at night and reopen in the day.
Well weird things,in all honesty they appear to be covered in trics lol but they aint no weird breeds or anything done by me.
39 pence or something for 200 odd seeds.
Anyway i will get to uploading them for you to see and when they eventually flower i will take some more pics for you:blsmoke:

Yeah Nat. that is some weird sh*t. I am not too sure what is going on there. the pics are still downloading. I am on dial up so when I clicked on those 2 links, one took me to your journal with lots of pics but there are so many huge pics that it just about shuts my 'puter down.
Thats why I have difficulty going to some people's grow journals. not 'cause I don't want to.

And I would love to hear that audio of yours but I just can't download something that big.

The daisies don't look that weird though. They do tend to look like that when they are sprouting and are sticky too. :|
I wish I could be of more help.
