New Grower Flowering Question

Hows It Goin Network

Got a question here and as im a new bee and on my first plant im a little unsure.
My auto flower is now been flowering for about week now and i can see where the buds will form however it seems to me that the lower forming nuggs are being deprived of light as the bigger leaves above are blocking it.
i have seen people talk about cutting leaves on this forum and just wanted to know whether it is ok the cut certain leaves which block Light and if so is there a certain way of cutting them
your help would be really appreciated

First try and tuck leaves that are blocking light out of the way.If you can't do that just take a trimming scissors and remove the leaves that are blocking the light.I do it all the time with no problems.

I usually have to end up cutting some leaves off as well and have yet to have a problem. But I would do as Nammy said and try to tuck them first.:smokebuds:

Thats great thanks guys,
So If i cut the leaves off, where do i cut it from, the long stem or just at the start of the leaf?

 

[namvet25]

The entire leaf where it meets the main stem.
