Wow you guys are kidding me right? Every person I've asked told me to trim the leaves so the plant concentrates more energy and food into the 'body' as they call it, to produce more bud because edvidently the leaves do not form buds. I thought about it and thought it's true. I mean, on the stem is where the buds form and the leaves are just there to produce energy (like acting as a solar panel and absorbing the light), so if you cut some leaves off then there would be more energy left for the plant to use? I don't know, Im so confused and I cut lots of leaves off my plant so far, mostly big leaves because I thought its getting too big and taking up too much of the plant's energy.
