For those of you who are afraid to remove yellow leaves from your plants, I just wanted to share that I removed healthy green leaves to allow more light to penetrate the buds growing in the center. See the 3 pics a few posts up. I left the lower leaves that are not blocking any buds and the upper leaves as well for food production. This way I'll encourage more bud growth in the center of the short plant. The green leaves I removed were blocking most of the buds in the center. For your information, yellow leaves don't provide the plant with any nutrients anyway, so they are only blocking light. I had to put this out there, cause the last time I suggested to remove yellow leaves that were shading bud sites to another grower, most peole were suggesting to leave them on instead.

Actually this post was just a shameless BUMP with some helpful tips.
