Has anyone ever tried just removing the large fingers on each leaf that is blocking light rather than the whole leaf?
I started doing it a while ago because i noticed if you remove one leaf and not the one opposite, the side with the leaf always grows a bit better, but if you only remove the large fingers of the leaf (leaving the two tiny fingers and leaf stem) you let light down into the plant without stunting that side of the node.
I don't know if it makes any difference to the final yield but it might be worth testing.......
