oh man that sucks! you must have some wicked-sharp scissors to not feel the resistance from the stem.

sorry to hear...I do stupid things too, like clean my cloning area and turning my cloning tray upside down so I could clean the bottom...funny part is there were still clones in it.

As for your problem I do not know if it will root, maybe you should find out for us...lol.

actually fan leaves dont produce buds... and they block light from other parts of plant. plus they were brown spotted also they were so big they could not hold themselves up.. so if would have helped my plant had i not chopped her down! although all this stress will amke it a hermi now im sure lol

yeah but sunleaves take in light for photosynthesis so the plant can create energy to grow...like solar panels....plants need those leaves IMO.

especially at 5 inches tall. i can understand taking dead fan leaves off at like 5 feet but not 5 inches lol.

all chlorophyll does photo synthesiss... not just fan leaves, also the nutrition comes through the flome cells so... it should be fine... and to be honest its percing up and i think its going to make it:D

the fan leafs are the plants solar panals, they take in lite, and help the plant grow, dont snip at it , at such a young age, the plant will find the lite, you dont have to snipp at it, ha ha karma thants what you get for snipping at it, was it your only plant?

wow I dont know if thats funny or just sad lol.You dont cut the fan leaves off the plant as they absorb the needed light that is need to produce food during photosynthesis.Your trimming them off especially at such a young agae just starved your plant, cut thc production, and stunted its growth rate all in 1 mistake lol.Unless your lollipopping or at the final stage of growth and popping dead leaves for your own viewing pleasure you never cut leaves.I dont even advise it when cloning to cut the leaves in half as I find it slows rooting myself.
