Foliage Removal

[PRIMO]

If they are auto don't switch to 12-12 just pluck any leaves blocking light from buds and continue to feed-water.

So is it bad to defoliate when in 12/12 ?? “Autoflower”

I would lose the purple light and use natural light or a flash when taking pics. Then I'd defol. about a third of the leaves, lollypop the lowers, feed and wait a week or two,then switch the flip to 12-12. I would also start adding some unsulphured molasses.

So, I plan on Lolipopping my plant sometime soon a few days before I switch into 12/12. A couple weeks ago, I ran in a CalMag, overwatering, and pH fluctuation problem all at the same time. It had a detrimental effect on 2 sets of leaves, causing them to stop growing and not really resemble a leaf. After I dried the root zone, adjusted pH, and supplied Calmag , new growth became vibrant and steady. The leaves the were effected have not grown and look odd.
Should I remove these damaged leaves? Is the plant diverting energy and nutrients to these leaves still?
