Leaf Removal

Hello RIU!

I have recently started flowering my two monster plants. They are about 4.5 feet tall and about 2 feet across right now.

I'm wondering if I can remove all the large water leaves without problems. Of course I would leave all the leaves that surround the bud sites that are fully developed now. I sorta want to get these big ass leaves out of the way of the light. Can I cut a good bit of the large stand alone leaves off this plant?

I'm running sonagro blue enhanced HPS light over these, hopefully it will aid in the plant enlarging leaves if it needs to.

Yu can man. Rule of thumb, if its blocking a bud site, move it or cut it off. But dont go ott now, those leaves absorb light, if you go cutting every leaf off, how you gonna get that damn energy? Try moving them to start off with but if you cant dont be afraid to do a bit of pruning :)

Good luck mate.
p.s. if you know anything about plant diagnostic, check out my sig, need help with some yellowing :)
