I guess the answer would be the one you want to hear:ignore:

I personally leave all my leaves on my plants in order for the plant to utilize all the nutes to their max. I like nice hard, tric cover buds, not the buds that are all air.

All of them!

LOL--I would not call it mixed responses either. Virtually everyone told you not to remove the fan leaves. Photosynthesis takes place in the green parts of plants. Plants need ALL their leaves. Do not trim fan leaves from a plant. You may want to trim entire branches from the lower part of the plant, but do not trim fan leaves.
In case it wasn't mentioned before, you do not want to cut fan leaves off your plant. There is no upside and plenty of downside. There are botanical reasons not to trim fan leaves--we know that it is detrimental to plant growth and development.

I wonder if that pic of mgfcom's stripped WW is still around anywhere.....

So, now I'm confused. Should I or shouldn't I trim the fan leaves? ;)

That thread cracked me up!
When he got all excited about seeing a male hermie.
It is interesting: last night while I was trimming my male + pollenating I noticed the male plant had a single female flower: i.e. a male hermie? i.e. NOT a female plant with male flower, but male plant with a single female flower. So I cut it, and smoked it.
HAHAHA :rofl:
