My plants where doing fine and then i watched an online tuition about pruning the fan leafs i think i have went over the top because i haven't had any growth in about ten days is there anything i can do that would help stimulate the growth cycle again i am 45 days into flower.

I wanted to bush the shit out of a smaller plant i had and topped atleast half of the plant down...didn't grow much for over a week. Just give it time it's building up roots in the mean time. You should never prune back more than 1/4-1/3 of a plant if it's a healthy size, that was my rule of thumb for out door plants. i don't prune my girls nearly that much even.

Well the big fan leaves are where the rubber hits the road as far as the plant photosynthesizing and producing food for itself. You have removed them and the plant is stunted as it can't make enough food for itself. People disagree on this but I never remove green foliage, for this exact reason. Leaves are what drives the plant, why the hell cut them off? If a leaf is not adding to the overall growth and productivity of the plant, the plant will suck the nutrients out of it (turns yellow) and abort the leaf.

there are those people who think if a leaf is yellow the plant must be sick. I used to be one of those. Not so much anymore :):mrgreen:

so you watched a video that told you to remove all the leaves 45 days into flower??? I don't believe that. a nude plant is not a happy plant
