well if you want to maximize their growth, I'd leave them on for a while longer even though they look bad. The reason is that as long as they are green they are contributing something to the plant. Why not wait just a little longer before cutting them off and let them do as much as possible to strengthen the plant. I know we all want our babies to be pretty, but sometimes looks aren't everything...lol
