Once the fan leaves start yellowing at the normal stage of growth the plant is deriving NOTHING from them. The lower fan leaves can go before they start degrading and making good targets for bugs or fungus.I've always removed all fan leafs from my plants at this point and it's never done any harm. I manage a average 3 to 5 Oz per plant so not sure what all the fuss is about removing fan leafs???. So what you guys are saying is if I leave the fan leafs on I'd get 7 to 10 Oz? I'm not thinking so.
