Please tell me, at day 86 of indoor aerogarden blueberry fem during bloom is it wise or OKAY at the least to remove dying or dead fan leaves? they are pissing me off and I feel the urge to slice them carefully off...

I know there isn't too much point to this but is it okay too do?

Yepper, I always pull the dead, and 50% dead leaves. If the leaf is yellow, the Chlorophyll, ( thats the pigmented molocule that absorbs light and converts C02 and H20 into usable carbs) is not present, and therefore, the leaf is past its useful stage. In addition to this, long before the leaf yellows and dies, the stomata, ( these are the aperture like openings on the leaf underside through which the leaf transpires), ceases to function. So.... yeah, be judicious, but you can pull those mofos
