You can but only leaves that are blocking potential bud sites. never more than a third of the plant at a time (in any phase of growth) and only do so every few weeks. too much trimming during flower and you could stress her into hermie.

i have heard all and so i tried a side by side
my findings plants need big fan leaves for growthand stretch
after the stretch is over plants no longer need them sum start to yellow sum start to die and drop
i have grown and removed after stretch finished to almost bald plant
leaving only leaves around buds no herm everything else was corect
id rather experiment then listen

I agree. I personally don't cut anything I don't have to, but that's just my personal approach. Although the forum has a bunch of useful info, a lot of it is subjective. That's the best part about this hobby. So many different approaches

Yup once you get the basics down and have the confidence then half the fun becomes trying new things

It's just me and my methods, but I never cut leaves unless they block a bud and I cant move the bud over. Almost NEVER happens. The plant will shed the leaf when it's no longer needed. To me, trimming leaves is like giving the plant a gastric by-pass.

leave the fan leafs alone. what the hell do you guys think makes the buds? allowing more light to the buds? NO.
when growing fruit do you prune off all the leafs so you can have the light hit the fruit? NO why? because the fruit does not need to receive light the leafs do. less leaf=less bud
