I just need to know if I should be trimming the fan leaves on the top!? I have lollipopped the lower stalks and kept everything clean under there. I just have a LOT of bud sites in my 4x4 first tent. I don’t know if I’m better off trimming upper fan leaves to allow light penetration or if they’re serving more of a purpose as solar panels remained in tact I’m including pictures. I’m open to any and all advice as I said this is my first grow and I have put a lot of work into it and just want it to be the best it possibly can .. thanks in advance

Oh boy, I hope you have access to all sides of that tent. Looks like you have a jungle in there.
I run into a similar situation on my annual indoor grow. I try and remove interior growth that isn't getting good light penetration.

I do have access although getting around to the other side is a pain
Trim leaves up until the middle of the 4th week of flower. Don't take any off after that point though.
i switched to flower on January 1st. I didn’t really trim leaves off the top
Is it too late ? Should I have ??

Deff a mini jungle and do you think it’s too late to trim ? Switched flower January 1st ? Do I pluck leaves off in the middlE still to open up?

Bro, strip em. Get some snippers and start cutting off leaves about half an inch up the petiole stem.
 
Here's a post of some defoliating done recently.

 
Welll I didn’t fully defoliate as much as some do. I’m kind of nervous that I did this a little late into flower, but during vegetation I did defoliate multiple Times to make new bud sites grow and branch out. So they should be accustomed to it ? Wish me well ! Praying the lights penetrate deeper now and I have nice big chunky colas !!!

Yeah I wouldn't do much unless your rh spikes, then remove large fan leaves...... Make sure you have plenty of air circulation, rot/pm can decimate the crop.

Good luck
 
follow up pictures after defoliation .... any more recommendations !? Completely open to advice !!!

Just keep them healthy and watch your temps/humidity. Looking good though.
Thanks brother. My rh was actually MUCH higher before defoliation. In the 50’s . This morning when I went to turn the lights off, I noticed it was down to about 33 which is more around where I would like it right ?
