    Default Removing damaged leaves??Yes or No!?

    Just started flower...1st week. Last week had to use a pyrithaim bomb (indoor grow) to kill mites. There is leaf damage from the bomb (browning, yellowing, twisting,cripsyness...ugly). I was wondering if i should remove the effected leaves...my logic is that removing them will cause uneeded stress as i strart my flower, but keeping them will force the plant to use eneergy on repair instead of flowering...which should i do? any advice would help!

    Your logic seems sound to me, tho I'm no pro for sure.

    I'd chop 'em.

    dont remove anything still attached to the plant as this will cause the plant to use all its energy to heal itself. only remove leaves that have fallen off and are stuck in the plant.
