Your plant will eventually lose those leaves probably anyway regardless if it was in soil or not. Might as well let your baby use up the energy stored in those leaves to help her grow big and strong :thumbsup:
daihashi Reviewed by daihashi on . Can I prune a 2wk old seedling without damage I have just started LST on a three of my plants, just experimenting with different types of grows. They are 2 week old seedlings on their 4th set of leaves with 5th set just now showing. Last night I tied them over and am considering pruning some of the large bottom leaves that are hanging in the dirt. Will pruning this early cause problems? If not, are there any guidelines I should adhere to? I have not topped or fimmed yet but am planning to. Thanks for your responses. ;) Rating: 5
