triming leaves

Nope, no need to trim them. They are important for the photosynthesis process of converting sugars. The sugars are needed to produce nice full buds.

I have fan leaves bigger then my hand on my plant and won't touch them. I use to trim before and would run into problems with my plant. This is the first time that I haven't trimmed and I'm getting the best results, so I'm against trimming.

Get ready for a bunch more different opinions.

It's really what works for you and the strain that you're growing. Play around with this batch and trim on one plant and not on another a decide what you think makes the best bud.

Absolutely not!! Are you trying to start a fight on here? This is one of the more controversial subjects. LOL I've seen more bickering about this subject than any other. Just leave them until they are dead. you can always tie them back if you feel that they are in the way.

it depends on what method of growing you are wanting to do. if you are wanting to grow the full plant than no but if you are wanting to do a sea of green method than yes. it is all up to you. do some reserch and see what sort of method you want to do.

While you're here, why don't you take some pics and show her off? I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one interested in checking out your girls.

They look really healthy and HELLA bushy! If I may suggest; bend the lower stems straight out and tie them down. They'll grow out and turn up getting form underneath the top leaves. It doesn't matter that you just started flowering, it'll be fine.

I still say if you want to cut some, just do it on one plant and see if you like the effects. You definitely won't kill the plant and you'll get an answer first hand.

Looking great though!!
