No leave them, they are there for photosynthesis. There needed to help her grow.

Is it white widow ? No don't trim or cut them off the plant needs them . Try let training if u want more light into the plant it opens it up really good

OK thanks no its og kush

Yeah don't cut any off there. Those leaves are acting as solar panels. The more, the more energy the plant is taking in. Give a little LST to spread em' out a bit if anything.

My general rule is to not remove any leaves until they are more than 50% yellow/dead.

Years ago I had 4 Armageddon autos going and I kept on removing one or two big fans a day. To help get more light to the rest of the plant. All at once I developed an albino condition where all the new "greenery" from the 4 plants wasn't green, it was pure white. The product was worthless and I ended up trashing a quarter lb. Lesson -- you can remove fans up to a point -- and when you reach that point it is too late. Ever since I have used my general rule and not lost any plants.

Good luck, BigSteve.

If you need light to get to bud sites there is a easy way that doesnt involve lst or cutting, simply tuck the fan leaves behind the nearest branch and avoid stress.
