Im Think Cutting Some Fan Leafs Off The Lower Branches To Expose The Lower Tips To Get Light To Them Is This Good For The Flowering Process To Get The Lower Branches To Produce More Bud

No its not a good thing,if you need to get more light to the lesser bud sites you can tie the lower branches so they receive more light or tie the large fan's out of the way,or a combo of both.

The fan leaves are the plants solar panels & they need them.

Do not cut the leaves you will get small buds. The leaves are what fuels the buds.

yes it will. its already been said but they are the solar panels. if you cut them off they will be bringing in less energy for the whole plant. its as bad as pruning your roots
