Hey guys and girls, just wondering if its benificial to remove the fan leaves right at the top of my main colo's as you can see there is multiple small fan leaves between and on top of the cola's blocking light from hitting most of the top cola's as there is so many little budsites right under these fan leaves. Day 39 of Flower.

I have already defoilated a lot of lower fan leaves and branches that were not getting hit by the light,

Long question short, can i remove ALL of if ANY of the fan leaves at the VERY top of my plant.

Thank you ver much people!

Plant is trying to concentrate on blooming , not on repair.
( such as stripping leaves )

Im sure one fan leave a day wouldnt make the plants go into shock, but you dont recommened it no? i see a lot of pictures of peoples main colas and they look bare compared to mine and get there massive, or do you just do that for pictures just before cut? it just seems like all the little nugs under the main cola are not getting any light as there all still small buds, Thanks for you input man.

It’s also genetics.... some are leafy shits , some chunk , some foxtail.

You need more light ... MORE LIGHT = MORE BUD.

They gain weight during week 7 so IMO I would throw as much light .... even supplement it

What light are you throwing at it ? Plus temps , medium , Nutes , etc.

Also noted it’s a sativa dom so it has awhile to mature ( weeks )
