removing fan leaves

fabfun · Sep 17, 2010

I see what u mean i see so many post a ? and then the first guy that answers they run with his advice and do unrepairable damage instead of waiting to get several answers and then weighing the opinions to see which sounds creditable. Thats why i dont like when someone chimes in that this topic has been settled so u dont need to reply i say bullshit i like to get advice from a bunch of people and compare see who's matches up and how many agree.

I personally am the wrong prson to ask about experience with condition A vs. condition B. When I started growing I realized that you need to have a plan to grow decent plants. I read alot from people on hear who seemed to have some respect from others. You will see who is who. Then I formed a plan and I only tweak it a bit each grow. So to answer yor question honestly I dont know because if a leave or a branch gets in my way I get rid of it. Period. You will see who's who and when you do make a short list of go to guys rather than posting a question and getting ripped up for not being a cannabis god.

Remember in the end that you are just growing a weed. How hard is that?

A word of caution to ya. Ignorance is running rampant on here. Before getting advise from someone on here verify that they actually know how to grow weed and not just giving you the same answer someone gave them 2 weeks ago when they asked the same question.

the plant will develop just fine.

my saying is: if green, leave it alone. yellow, pull em. theyll fall off eventually anyways. brown: remove.

fabfun · Sep 17, 2010

if just a fan leave yes but if not and it is broke bad then clone it and save it

leave all leafs the more leaf means more bud and thats a fact, only remove if dead, if its got mold or a bad infestation.

fabfun · Sep 17, 2010

the branch in ? is the one he just broke by dropping his light on it
the removing fan leaves ? was cleared up but then he had a accident
but we dont know if it is a fan leave or not still waiting for him to respond

oh i didnt really read the thread just the title and it seemed it was another thread askin if it was good to remove leafs to open bud sites for more light it seems theris alot of those. i should have read it first

fabfun · Sep 17, 2010

thats cool i do that sometimes to when its a long thread this ones been going for days
but since u r a expert and here, if he broke a branch thats not a fan leaf should he try to save the branch or just use as a clone?

well im no expert but i do know quite a bit. some day i will be a pro.
but if it was a branch that broke completely off then i would try to clone it, if it just kinda snapped over but was still attached by half or more of the stem and was a main branch then i would splint it together till it was strong enough to hold its self together it would be like an accidental super crop.

fabfun · Sep 17, 2010

well im sure u forgot more about this then i know
I think it didnt break all the way off and he tried to fix it but dont know how wish he would come back to answer are ?'s to his ?'s but maybe he is busy super gluing it back on
