if you can't tuck it, pluck it. i keep the bottom 6-8" of my plants leaf free. helps with airflow and keeps temps. down. if your fan leaves are blocking bud-sites and you can't tuck it out of the way, cut it off. just remember, those fan leaves are important, so don't take too many off. and when trimming, don't do too much at one time.

nah, u can remove them.

i got 2 plants under a 600w. bushy as hell. the lower part of the plant hardly had any bud on it compared to the top! so i trimmed a few leaves out the way and now the bottom part of the plant is growing abit more nice buds

only do a few at a time then come back to it the next day or something.


and yeah, u can trim almost all ur leaves off towards harvest to maximise light to ur buds
