Some people do cut them. Esp if they over shadow bud sites. Others say it can stress the plant. Taking off a few lower dead fan leaves shouldnt do much damage as long as you dont get carried away.

The first one is the main cola of my best plant. . The 4th one is a cola also but that plant stretched quite a bit so it's a bit spindly with thinner buds, the others are just bud sites on some of the other girls.

I gave them a a quick trim mate and a general tidy up, can't wait to harvest these. . End of the month, possibly early May (latest)

Taken a T5 down, I had it up with my HPS. . Now using the T5 for side lighting to help the buds just underneath the canopy.

Good move, or ???

Sounds like a good move the t5 wouldnt be able to compete with the hps at the same distance. Was looking into some of those for seed starting/ side lighting myself. Maybe when i have more room

I did have it a little lower, but I felt the two plants under the T5 weren't getting the full benefit of the HPS, T5 slightly shadowing them from the HPS.


So opted for the side lighting. . Hopefully the buds underneath the canopy will fatten up Red spec.


Congratulations on your harvest to man, looks great. . Can't wait to do mine, end of the month!

 

[Hector]

Side lighting up this area, hopefully those smaller buds will fatten up a bit more

 

[Hector]

They've had a bit of stretch, some are a bit worse than that lol

Just putting it all down to beginner mistakes, I'm already looking forward to my next grow, can't wait
