[mandycheese]

Mandycheese was just thinkin which I admit that is not always a good thing. So anyway the thought was, shud I perhaps remove the big fan leaves which have no bud sites, to enable more light to the places where there are buds? Hhhmm please give me a push in the rite direction Thank you muchly.

Hiya Mandy Chee. Hope you're well today.

I suggest doing the tuck method instead of removing them, especially since they're so healthy anyway. Just take those fan leaves and tuck them up a branch. There is a couple threads on here about it I think.

I remove the lower leaves and even the smaller buds that are under the main canopy that get no light .If there are fan leaves that are getting light but are covering a bud I just kind of move it or tuck it aside to let the light get in to a bud stem.If the fan leaves are not hiding anything just leave them to collect the light and do ther job

The light those leaves absorb feed the plant and aid it in bud production. If there dying and not being used the plant will drop then herself. If there healthy ad green she is still using them. There's a sticky about the leaf tucking method. Just put it in the advanced search and read away. The leaves are like satellite dishes. You remove them from your house the less energy and power it will have. Especially with autoflowers, the leaves staying on and being able to absorb light aides more in bud production then them not absorbing light and the healing time to allow light to get to them sites does. That's why the tucking method was invented. I use it in my auto grows and so do many others. It works.

Thanks for replying so fast guys, ill read up on the leaf tucking and then ill set to work 2morra. Was just thinking that now they are so big they must block quite a bit of light shows how much there is still for me to learn, . Will be doing a full update 2morra with pics. Thanks again guys.

Gee Mandy you have asked the one question where growers can never agree on. There are leafers and non leafers. Maybe you should start a pole. Some will say no like Muddy and many others and some will say yes. I'm a leafer myself. I find Republicans tend not to be leafers while democarats are leafers. It is just best to follow that trend.
