I was just taking some pups from my NOID girl and noticed a few immature leaves. they don't have the mature leaves characteristics, and I don't think they'll ever mature to look like the true girl leaves(almost like cotyledons), so what do you all do? Cut them off so they don't drain energy from the plant or leave them, because they help supply energy. Or neither, do you just take them off for cosmetic reasons?

Just wondering what I should do. The pups outer leaves are similar, but the new center leaves are very girlie.
