I have 10w and 30w solar panels. Also I have a charge controller. Can I connect parallel the different power panels directly. Do they effect each other? Will there be problem electrically. Do i have to use at least one diode ?

Best regards.
 
They don't effect each other as long each panel has its own diode
make sure you controler can handel the power but 40 W in total should not be a problem for the most controlers
