I don't see it being a problem.Bigger leaves means more energy production, correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm with Tvbfe, the theory being that fan leaves act as solar panels absorbing the lights energy and then transporting them to the buds. So the larger the fan leaves are the bigger the solar panel you would assume. Would love a pic if u have one OP

This thread was moved from Grow Journals.
Reason: This seems like a general cultivation question rather than a growlog. Cannabis Cultivation is typically where to ask questions of this nature.

Do you have any pics of the leaves? I'm sure it's not a problemember for the plant, but I'd just like to see how big we are talking here.

as tvbfe said, more surface area the more energy that leaf can absorb. as long as the leaf is healthy its totally cool, the only problem that may be, is if you have multiple plants close together, those large leaves can block light from reaching other leaves, in that case, what i do is just simply move the leaf so that its no longer blocking the light from other areas. or if its an option, just simply turn the whole plant to another position where it doesnt block light. if its seriously blocking light, and you have absolutely no other option, you can cut it, just make sure you take a minute to think about it first, cause that plant can end up losing alot of energy from those big leaves, you can also cut just a portion of it, it wont take in as much energy as it does now but atleast it will take in some energy. but only cut it as an absolute last resort. you can usually always tuck it out of the way.
