The leaves will not grow back..

If your plant is super duper healthy you probably can afford to cut some fan leavs from the bottom..

It is never recommended to cut any leaves.. they are capturing the LIGHT and using the energy to grow

BUT if you must, use bottom leaves..

cheers

i wouldn't cut any off. They large fans leaves turn light into energy.

fan leaves dont have very much thc in them dont even bother with it, if ur guna make shit with leaves then u gota use the fine leaves that are covered with crystals, they are growing out of the bud nd shit but dont pick any leaves juss let it grow and u can use the leaves when u harvest

Tea from fresh leaves? Never had it. How does it taste? how much leaves do you use?

I used to cut the fan leaves, but it stunted the growth of my plants, so I just leave the plants alone, except feeding. Not much pruning. I do bending, which is less stressful, but easy to break branches if you are not familiar with it.

stem tea is much more potent and better, dont waste time cutting leaves off the plant needs leaves to grow and gather sun. By the way ur plant looks very healthy.

Don't cut those leaves. Those leaves are like your plant's solar energy panels.
