so i am not sure if i posted this in the correct place but basically im having a problem in my room. this is my first time scrogging and its growing up and through the screen but alot of leaves are dying. i dont know if its from the plant bending or what. it looks like a mag def. but the nutrients have plenty of cal mag. so fan leaves are dying off everyday. so my question is the fan leaves that arent getting light or looking bad, should i just cut thosae off? another question is also should ibe topping these babys cause there are alot of nodes through the screen but i dont know if i should top? there are growing through 2 inch chicken wire. i can post pics but would prefer not too.

pictures would help, but i wouldnt cut fan leaves. Only if there 50% dead, (Yellowing) Because, ur plant is working to hard to bring that fan leaf back. Time to get rid of it and concentrat on a new growth area. With the topping depends on how mature the plant is.

It would also help to know how many weeks into flower you are. It is not unusual to have a fair percentage of the leaf under the screen die off about half-way into flowering.

Are you in veg or bloom ?

If the fan leaves are blocking bud sites, tuck them under or cut them off.
ONLY the very large ones too !
Anything and everything under the screen MUST be trimmed off entirely by the end of week 3 Bloom, at the latest.

What nutrient line up ?
PPM ?
PH ?
Rez temps ?
Tap water or R/O ?
