I need advice please!!!
Hi there everyone im new to growing indoors and was wondering if i could get a little feedback. I will hopefully have photos up soon but in the meantime ill just describe it.
I have 7 plants all about 3 weeks old and they seem to be doing wonderfully. I have them under 2 600w Son-t globes and every day they are getting so much bigger. The only problem im having is that the leaves are sooo big!!
Should i be trimming these big leaves or let them go as a light catcher? They seem to be blocking quite a bit of light from getting under them but at the same time they seem to be doing so well!!!
ANy help is greatly appreciated,

thanks heaps that was a lot of help!!! i dont understand though why my plants are only about 4-5 inches tall and have such huge fan leaves....as big as ive seen on fully developed plants!!
Done a bit of reading and it seems to be a good thing rather than bad, type of strain and genetics etc i just find it unusual as ive never seen this before, anyone else had this before?

Possibly too much light is slowing down vertical growth.

They look pretty normal imo.
If you truly have those under two 600s, you're wasting an awful lot of light. I'd have those under a 150 or some T5s for now. cn
<add> In re your question about doing anything to the leaves, my advice is Don't. Let them grow past basketball size before you need to worry about training and thinning. Since you have two 600s, you're probably dealing with a 4x8 space or similar, and you'll need to let the plants build some size and weight before either training or switching to 12/12. Those look like some nice mostly-Indicas. Bagseed, or name strain?

i wouldent trim the lower leafs, any leaf catching any light is better than no leaf catching no light. youll know its time to trim them when they start turning yellow at the bottom. just get more light and pisition them where they can get some light at the bottom. good luck and i would like to see some pics aswell
