This has always been my feeling, if I can't move it I'll cut it, it doesn't seem to matter. If your plants look anything like mine, there are so many fan leaves that light hardly gets through to the floor.

well, after yesterdays rearrangement of the ladies into the garden i came up to the following conclusion......fan leaves do not really need to be cut but in the case they are cut then it is ok....i have cut around 5 large fan leaves out of two plants blocking the way of light to the buds....on some other plants where i did not cut them, the buds underneath must have grown so much within two days that bypassed the fan leaves and now they are directly under the lights.... :)

funny how nature has a way of working out. lol

Peace
