Keep the fan leaves! My reasoning is if you cut the fan leaves to let the lower buds get more light, you're depriving the buds that utilize the leaves the chance to get really big. Bigger = better! The little buds are most likely going to be little no matter what, but the branches with the fans are looking to get huge. Let them! :jointsmile:
dejayou30 Reviewed by dejayou30 on . Bigger top colas I was curious if trimming all the undergrowth on each branch before putting a plant into flower would cause bigger top buds. Kinda like a scrog without the wire. I suspect that maybe trimming 1/4 of the plant each day for 4 days would reduce the stress. Any thoughts? Rating: 5
