I would, but it's your call. I'm just saying you can, not you should. Either way, rest assured, removing the lower, very small popcorn buds will not decrease your yield. When everything is flowering along nicely, you'll see witch ones are the ones wasting energy.
 
yes, ive changed my avatar yet again...i must have multi personality disorder. I tried one of my pics again to see if it would be bigger than my pinkie nail, since ive been promoted..but nope. :(
 
ok, woke up this morning, and the girls are lookin beautiful! i gave them all a nice veg/cal mag feeding today, and boy did they need it! im gonna start lifting the pots to see if they need a watering from now on, because i did the knuckle trick, the first 2 inches were loose and dry, and then I hit a hard part of the soil. I ALMOST decided to wait another day to water. But when i decided to do a feeding, i picked up my first pot, and it was light as a feather! gheese, theyre really sucking it up, and i didnt even know it! I think im gonna have to go to a twice a week water/feeding now, which is good cuz i can move to my bloom nutes faster once they stop vertical growth.
I have one minor issue...I have 3 AKR's. one is SO thick, huge canopy, another is medium, and the other is very thin canopy, not very many leaves at all. However on the thinnest one, Im noticing alot of leaves yellowing off and dying on me. Ive been removing at least 4-5 leaves off her every day. Is that normal? I mean, im removing leaves from all 3 every day, but usually 2-3. The thinnest plant a.k.a. my "runt" seems to be losing the most. I have just been chalking it up to normal, but I wanted to ask, just in case. Ill post some pics later today, once the girls wake up!

The first pic is of my oldest photo..tall and strong(still veg) #2 is a side by side comparison of my best auto, and "runt" of which i was talking about a few hours ago. #'s 3 and 4 are each single shots of those two girls. then the next two are just closeups of my best girl, shes just been an unbelievable pheno right from seedling. just thriving no matter what~i got very lucky with her! The last 3 pics are samples of those leaves that I was talking about earlier. Im removing them on a daily basis. Is this typical for a plants progression, or a definciency? I personally think its normal, but since its happening the most to that thinned out pheno auto, it worries me. Well thats it for now! Any comments, good or bad welcome!
 
well my run off is coming out at around 6, but ive already added a bunch of dolomite lime. im afraid to add more, to be honest. it started off coming out at around 4.3 ish, and it has taken weeks to get it to 6.0, i just dont wanna keep dumping that stuff in them, especially when theyre budding up so nice.
 
If it's at 6 and you added a good bit of lime, it should raise on up some. I wouldn't add any more. You're looking good man. It'll be back in range soon man, have faith in the Mother Goddess.
 
man i dont know. its been holding steady at 5.8-6 for a couple weeks now. I hope so. I also thought of something, maybe its from under watering. I didnt realize how dry those girls were until i lifted them yesterday. and ive only been feeding them once a week for quite a while, even less before that. Im gonna have to find some pics of underwatered plants.
