But sometimes the leaves get so old, and crispy that the plant spends some reserve to recoup that leaf. instead of spending its energy on bud growth. Personally, I look at old leaves like cancer and remove at once. Also, If there blocking a good budsite its outta there..PRONTO! Each to there own. Peace.

Yes you can trim them. I usually pre-trim alot of the bigger fans day or two before harvest. Makes it a lot easier when you have to do alot of trimming.

If the leaf is dead remove it, If its still green, it's producing carbo foods for the budsite (you know, the stuff people add in, sometimes at high $$, to counter leaf removal?).

Leave it alone.
