The only time you trim leaves is if you are making bonsai.

i agree with the above posters, if it comes off with a gentle tug, that is the only time i take leaves off. mayyybe you fertalized too early, but i'm sure they'll recover! good luck, and happy growing!

Give a man a fish he eats for a day, but if you teach that same man how to garden, the whole damn neighborhood has tomatoes
I disagree with this.
Trimming the lower leaves / branches where light wont be affecting much allows the plant to focus more on the parts of the plant that recive the most light more efficiently.
It also makes the plant more manageable and easier to water if you are using soil.
I just experienced this myself. My plant was growing all kinds of crazy weak stuff at the bottom and when i would water it the leaves on the bottom most of the plant were getting nailed with miracle grow nutes ( MG works if used right , dont bellive the hype!! ) and mashed into the soil when i watered.
I trimmed leaves off after one month all the way up until i harvested and it worked out fine. No hermi , no stunted growth , no issues.
I may have just got lucky but it seemed fine and i plan on doing it again this round.
