Ok, I've heard (read) this a thousand times if I have once, so I'm sure it's correct. I would also agree that the plant probably needs the leaves most in the end to suck the nutes from, right, since you aren't feeding it...but...


I was listening to Zandor's podcast the other day, and he says something like, "meh, it shouldn't hurt them too bad."

So, I'm not trying to start anything. I love Zandor and TGR (his podcast), but I think he may be misleading with that comment. Maybe I'll send him an email tomorrow. I know the one I listened to is WAY old by now, so maybe he corrected himself. I know it's tempting to wanna chop them (the fan leaves) off so you can revel in the beauty that are the buds, but I wouldn't want a bunch of newbies to go running around chopping them off, just because they heard that "it probably won't hurt much" on a podcast. Know what I'm sayin'?

TheGreenFog Reviewed by TheGreenFog on . Our Continuous Harvest...more bud every 10 days! Hey all, I thought it was time to start a new log, this one will be focused on our flowering plants. As you all should know, Harris7 and I grow together.:greenthumb: This is a place where you can come for lots of bud pics, along with (hopefully) lots of debates and info on various harvesting/curing/trimming methods- from 24hrs darkness b4 harvest, to cutting off fan leaves. We have now entered into our continous harvest faze, we will be harvesting a new plant about every 10 days. Rating: 5
