My plant is a Lowryder, it's 21 days old now, and about 6 inches tall.

I was told to trim the undergrowth away in order to provide more light for the bud sites... I did that, but now the trimmed areas have sprouted a whole bunch of "mini" marjiuana finger leafs. my plant now looks like a normal marijuana plant on top, and a bushy mess of leafs below that.

I just trimmed away 3 more lead sets, and wasn't sure where, or when to stop?! should i remove the bushy mini leafs or just leave the plant as it is? when should i start trimming again?

dont remove anymore, your killing your plant. only trim the dead/injured/nute killed leaves....i push the fan leaves under the buds, its better for the plant and still allows light to hit the buds

I never trim my autos....you've probably stunted your LR or perhaps stressed it as it's doing it's thing on time alone....what you've done is almost reverse topping.....I wish you luck with it.....don't have any advise except you probably need to stop trimming your autos.

At that age and size, you should be letting the plant grow and build up healthy growth both above ground and below - not pruning, not trimming, not mutilating or butchering.
Let the plant speak to you and tell you when it is time to trim or clean out the crap.
The person who told you to butcher your plant is a retard.
