My Durban Poison Photo is entering its 8th week of flower and I am not sure if i should be removing fan leaves at this point or not. I have already removed the ones not feeding a bud site. This is my first plant ever so i am just not sure. And anxious. And nervous. And a bit skurt.

Removing leaves should be done very carefully. They provide the necessary sugars to produce flower so removing too many leaves will harm yields. I will typically remove fan leaves and ones that interfere with airflow at day 21 flower then selectively as the plant matures. A few days before harvest I will go in and remove the bulk of leaves as a labor-saving device at actual harvest.

I concur with @Myfriendis410 they are in perfect shape at this point. Plenty of light penetration and airflow. Airflow is very important especially during flower as buds get denser. Keep circulation fans at or just below canopy to help dry buds as they transpire heavily during flower.
