I performed surgery.couldn't help it

Ok so let me know if i'm an idiot but i just cut a few leaves off my 2 plants.My girls are a few weeks in ,are about 3 inches tall ,8 inches wide in both directions and quite bushy.I Noticed a few problems that were buggin the hell outa me.First on my white rhino the Cotyledon leaves were dying ,had turned yellow and were drooping ,and the set of leaves that grew right after them had browned round the edges and where half dead/dry (i think i may have been over watering before ,i read an article last night about it) ,so i cut them all off ,aside from those probs the plant looks great ,will she be shocked ? ,On my other plant i cut the cotyledon leaves off also as one looked rotten.,and that plant looks great to.what you think ,should i leave it in future?

i just let them wither and die naturally, but the leafs you cut off die anyways so, no big

might be a tiny amount of stress, nothing serious though

cool thanks man

my leaves are doing this too, however I dont know how I could have overwatered. I only watered them one time during the 2 weeks they were in the pot. I saw white splotches on the leaves and had to immediatly get them into the grow(much better temp control then where I had them). I found later it looks just like what ur talking about. Maybe the soil was too moist when I put it in perhaps? Or maybe the humidity was low?

just remember to try and make as clean a cut as possible (if you have to trim), so the plant can heal itself quickly
