I did a lot of LST to this gal her, I pulled ever bud shoot out and gave plenty of room for them to grow up and get lots of light. I'm noticing a lot of fan leaves cover and over lapping each other. I was wondering if I pluck or cut them back or should I leave alone... I just don't want to retard any growth for her first week it has had some serious growth and I know there is way more to come ...

Any help would be nice.

I would wait until the plant is ready and trim then

I don't do anything past week 2 from flip. I never remove any fan leaves, period. Those are your solar panels needed for optimal growth. If anything, snip off and low larf and or immediate inner larf up to week 2. After that, I don't mess with anything except tying up the colas that are flopping over.

I think 2bears thought you were talking about trimming as in harvesting, not lollipopping.

Leave the fans, snip all the lower and inner stuff the light won't really get to. Go easy, only a little bit, you don't want to stress the girls out too much. Then nothing after start of week 2. What I do. I still get lower larf I don't want. Imo, if the plant doesn't spend energy on the small bottom shaded stuff, it can focus on the upper buds.
Seems to work for me on 10 different strains.
