the original branches of nodes 3 and 4 (the beginning fan leaves with 3 blades, u know the ones im talking about.) are drooping. all the internodal branches look great standing up nice and strong. are the leaves just to big and heavy for the branch, should i snip em? nothing else is drooping just those 4 pink colored branches with fat green 3 blade leaves.

I'd just leave em until they die off, they prolly will. Always snip them when there dead, they don't do any thing but attract bacteria after that!

Maybe it's just the type of plant. I found that my plants grew a lot better if I didn't over mother them. Now I just let them be, check 2 times a day to make sure bulbs aren't touching anything.

the stems of the first leaves will be pink. I watched a lollypopping video and they said its ok to chop the leaves with red stems off up to the top 3rd of the plant when switching over to flower. this will open the plant up and allow the lower nodes to get more light. and i see a HUGE difference in the buds lower on the plant now. Its really up to you.

Mine seem to do the same thing and im not sure why yet but i just cut em as long as it doesnt go any higher then the top 3rd.
