when to trim off leave to promote good growth

i would still liek some more input on this subject not sure if these plants are male or female i want to cut them if they are junk and start over

here are some updates plz any help on what to due just started 12 12 on them

personally, I would remove those large fan leaves that are overhanging the rest, but thats just me, others would disagree with that. Another option is whats called lollipopping, this is when you remove the bottom 1/3 of the branchs, allowing the plant to to focus its energy on the upper growth. What might be your best option is whats called supercropping. You pinch the stem gently till it collapses, and then bent it over to 90 degrees. This will cause the plant to send more energy to the side shoots helping them catch up to the main cola. Well thats a couple options for you. It all depends on what your trying for. For all it matters man, you can just let it grow naturally. You should remove any leaves that die, but just let the rest of it go natural. Your plants lookin good, just gotta be patient. I just flipped most of my plants over to 12/12 this weekend also. The rest will go in 2 weeks. I'm gonna continue light trimming on mine until I can tell the sex, then I'm gonna let them groooow crazy, lol. Hope that helps man, TC

Thanks alot proly just gonna let them grow they are green leave y cut them i know what u saying about moving energy but wont the plant be hurt

are those clones or started from seed, if seeds mles will grow a hell of a lot faster then females.

It won't hurt the plant to just remove a couple here, and a couple there. Its just not good to chop alot off all at once, this can stress the plant.

i dont think they are males they have some hairs that make it look like female i am gonna trim some fan leaves today
