nice plant but why are you touching the buds? oils from your hands can cause molds to grow ! i noticed some of the leaves are cut? the fan leaves provide all the most of the nutreints for bud production. still a good lookin plant.

I dont think its his plants, it says on the info on youtube that the poster found the vid and does not claim its his...oh and about the touching buds thing...is that true? I see people touching their buds all the time...I doubt it causes mold...

firstly im touching the buds for you to have an idea on the size, no mold will grow on my plants because i take care of them very well...
the leaves are cut because it allows better light penetration throughout the whole plant which leads to more productive bud growth... also, plants dont get their nutrients from the fan leaves, you may be confused with the plant turning yellow in late flowering due to the plant directing all its energy on bud production therefore directing all the nutrients to the bud...

Cutting the fan leaves is bad(it also stresses your plant which would reduce overall quality maybe a lot or not much at all), as your plant is flowering it needs the extra energy.
If the plant didn't need them then why would it have them?? and the leaves turn the light into enery which aids in making your buds.. less fan leaves less power running the plant.

trust me when i say that 'pruning for yield' is a technique used by many experienced growers...
as long as your plant has enough vegetative growth to support itself then it will be fine... and as u can see from my plant it has lots of leaves, cutting some off to allow the light to better penetrate your plants bud sites will be beneficial in the long run

trust me, if not ask someone who knows a thing or 2
