Hello some of the big original fan leafs are covering and blocking out some new developing bud sites can I remove them or just leave it ?

Just leave them. That plant doesn't have tons of leaves, so I wouldn't be pulling any off.Hello some of the big original fan leafs are covering and blocking out some new developing bud sites can I remove them or just leave it ?
And with what looks like some side lighting nothing at all to worry about.Just leave them. That plant doesn't have tons of leaves, so I wouldn't be pulling any off.
I have currently a 50w and 30w led side lights I've got on order a 100w which when it comes will contribute to the bud growing which I hope is not too late to make any difference as she is a auto flower already on week 6Next run more light please
Instead of wasting money on cheap lights it'd be better to save and just buy one quality overhead unit.I have currently a 50w and 30w led side lights I've got on order a 100w which when it comes will contribute to the bud growing which I hope is not too late to make any difference as she is a auto flower already on week 6
I know what your saying I'm still new to this it's my 2nd successfull plant I've ever grown. And the lights have been cheap to buy as they've been on amazon offer and have turned out pretty good current light set up has only costed £30 that's around 47 us dollars aproxInstead of wasting money on cheap lights it'd be better to save and just buy one quality overhead unit.
All said and done, I am really looking forward to your produce when you get a decent light. You done good with what you have. Kudos.. But the main loss is time.. Which as you get older you will realise is a limite quantity! Start saving, like.... yesterday..I know what your saying I'm still new to this it's my 2nd successfull plant I've ever grown.

Thanks I'll post pics of when it's ready to harvest I'll be happy with a ounce to be fairAll said and done, I am really looking forward to your produce when you get a decent light.

Not to get into wavelengths, but you should read about auxins which seem to be what determines the growth you're describing. Which I'll reference below.Just leave it.
One aspect of wavelengths reaching plant material includes a calculation that will determine if one wavelength is present and one wavelength is missing.
I am not going to go Google this stuff, I read it quite a while ago and I really don't care if anyone believes me, I'm passing along mythology as far as some people may be concerned. And maybe there's some new knowledge to dispute this. But this is my general attitude regarding cutting leaves.
If a lower plant branch senses that it is being blocked from above, meaning it senses that that sunlight (which is made up of multiple wavelengths and a leaf above it will block certain wavelengths but not other certain wavelengths) this plant branch knows it is being blocked and should grow towards that direction.
It actually stimulates lower portions of the plant to grow higher and match the growth of whatever is above it if it knows there's sunlight blocking it. It will fight for dominance.
While simultaneously being depressed by the auxins sent by the main bud.
Don't clip unless you're clipping for reasons of more airflow, or if you're part of the defoliate in general crowd. But certainly not this early.

Even if you've pruned a leaf for a bud underneath, it might not make a huge difference as one might think. Sure it'll mature, but it seems auxins in theory favour the top. Obviously I'm no scientist and still prune my leaves and try have my canopy as even as possible to take advantage of this.
Cannabis shits me to tears sometimes. Some branches you think will make it end up disappointing. And sometimes randomly thin branches decide to climb up top.
