Default Cutting Fan Leafs Help Please

I have a ten plant aeroponics with skunk#1 and they are 6 weeks old. I am using advanced nutrients with a 400watt hps. They are growing crazy so i cut almost all the fan leafs besides the top ones. The inner growth is amazing cause i gave it more light by cutting the fan leafs. The plants look extremely healthy and are growing very nice. Should i be cutting the fan leafs or should i just keep them on? Here are the pictures they where taken 11-16 evening. The tallest plant is 21 inchs

Wink Fan leaves are a good thing!

Fan leaves are a good thing, or else they wouldn't be there, the more solar panels you have the better growth you're going to get, I wouldn't go cutting anymore in the future.


Nice healthy looking plants though, I'm interested to see what becomes of them, please keep us posted...

I thought about cutting away some fan leaves also. I heard from somewhere that it was a good idea since it lets more light penetrate. But I guess I wont do it!
