A question about fan leaves/pruning

Greetings all. This is my super skunk grow. Two plants about halfway through week 5 of flower. These plants are really bushy. I am wondering if I should prune back a lot of those fan leaves and give the buds some breathing room. I’ve heard conflicting stories about cutting that stuff out. Anyone with experience in this? Thanks!

Absolutely! 1) trim any fan leaves that are blocking bud sites and 2) trim the lower ones and any that you see that may be overlapping other fan leaves for better airflow.

“It’s about freaking time!” said all the buds who were starving for light, lol.

Thanks to the ILGM folks for the fast help!
