the tittle explains everything really... i have come across 2 opinions on this matter and no matter how much i search i always get these 2 replies, BUT THEY CANT BOTH BE RIGHT because the contradict each other.

View 1 - Do not take any of the fan leafs off, if the plant will need some nuts it will use use it from the fan leaf, if you take off then you are essentially taking off nutes that the plant can use on demand as it see fits.

View 2 - Take all yellow leafs off!if you dont take the leafs off the yellow leaf will use the plants energy and thus you will have less yeld.


view 2 is much more popular but it makes no sense logically... why would would the leaf be using the plants energy when its being sucked out by the plant itself?

also what about the defoliation? should we really defoliate? its practically the same as taking of little pockets of nutes that the plant can use on demand if needed,and will 100% end up using by the time you take the plant off.
