Should I cut sickly leaves?

[Lucifder]

So the title pretty much says it all im just not sure if I should remove leaves that curled/claw looking. I had some problems but now all the new growth looks healthy but its just those branches that have sickly leaves that make the plants looks sad. So if you think I should or should not let me know why. Thank you fellow growers. I will post some pictures soon sometimes the site lags to do so.

I have always removed all sick, dying, yellow, or dead leaves. All insects that like to prey on our favorite plant have a pre-wired brain that tells them yellow or dying leaves are the weakest part of the plant and the easiest to attack. Why do you think that sticky tape for bugs is yellow? As such I find it a wise choice to remove all sick or dying leaves. Just my 2 cents. Good Luck Dude

ya i did for mine i pinched off the branches/leaves that i thought wouldn't amount up to much which was like the bottom portion of the plant, people call it lolly popping its good for the top of the plant focus the energy to the top

If more then 50% of the leaf is damaged ( non count N def) then remove it it's just hurting the plant by being to damaged and using energy inefficentley.

if you have to pluck it, the plant is still using it, even if its just drawing the last bit of nutrients from said foliage

There curling leaves that really never bounced back up

If they are still green and supple keep them even if they are curled( depending on the extent of the curl. You want surface area still) if they are crispy or dis colored ( not including n def) then get rid of them. Only time I don't take dying leaves is at the end of flower cause it's a natural process. It allows the plant to take and use every bit of nutrients sugars and energy tword bud production plus extra water in hotter conditions!

Through the course of the plants life it naturally draws in and sheds some of its lower foliage- Personally, I only remove what comes off easily by hand.

same here.
but in the end of flowering, I don't do anything but let leaves fall by themselves.

Crispy leaves though are sign of sickness so I remove with chisel with no wait.

I am sorry I got here thru the new post section and I was being sarcastic...if you have sick leaves maybe you should jack off on it and see how that goes
