Leaves are sugar factories and storage facilities. I'd say no.

I will not take top leafs off just the bottom near the bottom close to the coco like the pop corn

This is long debated. I personally would only cut lower branches touching the medium.

That sounds good to me thanks I my try it out on one and see how it goes thank you

Pruning is an advanced technique.
If you do noting, bottom veg (in the dark) will not produce good bud.
Veg left in the dark for too long will die on its own.
I like to think that every bit of a pruned popcorn lower bud will be re-allocated into building a bigger upper bid.
So the sooner it is pruned, the less primary productivity gets wasted.
But as I say, it's an advanced technique.
Be mindful and deliberate, and hopefully learn where the sweet spot is.
This is my mantra. (far from finished learning)
