Is it normal to have New growth from where cotyledons were?

[BlueBudz]

I noticed where I trimmed cotyledons there is new tiny leaves starting. Is that common?

In my opinion - you should have left them on until they fell off - sorta like the quarterback for the plant.

Same thing happened to mine, I just plucked em back off.
Canuck147 can you elaborate on that???? Now you have me interested im ready to learn 👍🏻

The cotyledons are there to feed the seedling while growing root/leaves ect. but if you are supplying nutes then they are not necessary. I leave mine on anyways until I trim them the first time, You will get new growth around where you trim them its normal and you should keep trimming them

I did some major damage to 1 of my wonder woman I broke 1 arm off the manifold. the hole side while training I was so gutted. But she did produce another shoot from the cordial leaf. I felt like it was just a place where she can repear herself after an atack. I only had 1 shoot coming from the broken side. I did cut it off.

I trimmed these after there were already 5 nodes and the started to go yellow. I just didn’t expect new growth as this is not really considered a “real node”

I have seen this before too! I always find it really cute when a plant grows leaves in new or unexpected places I feel like they try to make extra leaves partly in response to all the defoliation and training we do.

I'm no expert - check out any read by Ed Rosenthal - or read up on it on GWE.
