I'm not sure if there is a post already in the forum on this subject - the search feature didnt work for me.

When I find a badly damaged leaf on my brugs (holes from being eaten) - do you keep them on the plant or remove them? If you remove them, how does it affect the plant? Should you just leave it on in order for the plant to grow properly?

I hope I am making sense - I know you are suppose to remove the spent flowers - but not sure about bad leaves :) I also go ahead and remove any leaf that has turned yellow, which I sometimes get.

Any advise would be greatly appreciated
