Training fan leaves

[yourbud]

Hi All!
My plants are doing well but the fan leaves are covering up bud sites. I am two weeks into flowering. How can I go about training them so they are not in the way of the light? I don't want to cut them for obvious reasons. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions from what has worked well for them?
Thanks!

A good solution is to tie your branches down alloying more light to penetrate the areas that dont get enough sunlight.

All your fan leaves are going to block a little light from lower buds don't worry about it. But if you have leaves that are directly over a bud trim it off, only trim one or two every three days and the plant will be ok. Other answer is let the plants form their own canopy and concentrate on the top buds, or Sea Of Green, which is popular these days.
