Should I chop burnt leaves.

[maccaisdon]

Hi,

Made a bit of a schoolboy error and it would appear that my light was too low, the plants are a little stunted and despite the tallest plant not getting burnt, a few leaves on another plant have and as such I have moved the light up.

My question is should I chop the damaged leaves as I am aware from reading that the damage cannot be repaired. Logically I think that I do not want the plant to waste energy on what are now dead leaves but I also am aware of stressing the plant by chopping, anyone have experience previously or just general knowledge?

Cheers

I just pluck my first four leaves. torn the stem on one. Hopefully I didn't kill It. Good luck man... Let me know what you hear.

I personally would just trim off the burnt parts of the leaves and anything thats green, leave it...

Good to know, next time I will just leaf them there....

I burnt the tops of my Pre-Grow really bad and was told to remove as much of the burned parts as I could. Not sure why or if it is the right thing to do, but I removed them from mine. The good thing was the bud parts that I removed made the buds on those colas go into overload growing new buds.
