"Sugar leaves" refers to the small leaflets your mature buds, that are covered in trichomes, that you don't want to throw away because they are very good hash material. I think you are a tad confused concerning the definition of "sugar leaf".

Obiousely it's not a good idea to remove fan leaves, a few ok, they are the factories of the plant, your plants look ok but 5 weeks flower? you should have seem some pistles by now I would think, pesonally I wouldn't bury them up to the nodes you cut off, you may rot the stem now that it's in flower stage.

dude i hit fan leaves throughout veg a little but wait till i switch to flower and go hard after the initial stretcth for me like 21 -28 days once flowers start showing.....then again like 3 weeks after that.....my yield increased like 20 25%....google high yield defoliation technique for a more thorough detailed thread....i know this is a great debate but im on my prolly 20th grow and wont ever do it different for now......good luck and enjoy the adventure of growing bro
