Yellowing leaves, should I pluck em?

[EyesOfTheWorld]

My outdoor grow is now in its final month before harvesting. All plants are budding nicely. I’m watering every day, because if they get the slightest bit thirsty their leaves droop like a weeping willow. These plants are from feminized clones. I moved them to this spot a couple weeks ago, so I attributed most things to the stress of the move. But even now, I’m getting a lot of fan tails go from a dark green to either a pale green then to various shades of yellow. I will add a pic to this thread tomorrow to show you these yellowing guys.

I’m of the opinion that these should be clipped, as they are competing for energy the buds want. Is this correct?

Supposed 7 gal canvas. Watering them at least a gallon every day. If we skip a day, my leaves droop bigly

Leaves that have finished growing and are no longer needed by the plant supply mobile nutrients to the parts that are now growing, the buds.

I leave mine on so they can feed the other bits of the plant. I only remove leaves if I have way too many on top of each other or if they are blocking light to the buds.

Im not sure it makes a whole lot of difference though. The yellowing ones are not competing for energy with your buds though.

When she is done feeding on those storage tanks they will come off with a slit tug.

Completely normal for lower leaves to turn yellow during flower. The plant doesn't need them anymore so it sucks all the nutes out then then they drop off. Not hurting your buds.

Not hurting anything but not helping either. Pull them off. Makes your otherwise nice plant look like shit.😉
