pruning?

hi there,

today i reluctantly pruned some of my leaves. i always said to myself im going to do it completely naturally and if a leaf dies then i will let nature take its course etc...

i was wondering how much this stresses a plant?

i have cut 2-3 leaves off about 4 plants, think i had a ph problem, they were yellowing, cracking and looking in a bad way. i took pretty much all of the worst affected leaves.

the new growth looks nice and i semi-flushed them.

any help would be much appreciated.

thanks

yea you will hear MANY differtent opionions on this one. i prune when necessary. last time i pruned i took off 20 fan leaves....I BELIVE that it helps light penetration. more bud when you harvest.others will say that te fan leaves are the workhorse of your plant. if you needa do it its YOUR CALL
p.s. befor you start a thread search for it cause ive had this thread and i see it like every week.
happy growings
