Will it effect my bud grow?

[carlos rayess]

I'm growing outdoor.. And i have those big leaves covering everything beneath it..

Is it possible to cut off those big leaves so the light can reach the lower part of the plant? ( lower part gets partial sun light )

I know those big leaves are like energy factory to the plant, but i don't know if they can do the job of growing my buds?

Trim them or not? ( i don't want to )

Well, according to me, you should not cut the leaves. It is correct that the leaves are the energy factors in the plant. Buds will grow properly even if the big leaves cover them.

i test defolation outdoor too.
works fine but even better is simple lst and cropping.
but dont doe too much bending actions outdoors can be risky at stormy weather.

I guess you're right.. Thank you bro

I will not cut the leaves .. I will leave it intact..
But i'm thinking to do this in my next grow next summer
I hope to do it right and be careful in those moves.. I may try one plant and see the results
