This is 3 months old, about 20" tall, topped 3 or 4 times, getting very bushy, should I trim off the more crowded sun leaves?

Get us a picture we can see!
Just added pics you can see. Thanks for your time!!Take a picture in ambiant light. Are those your primary growlights in the picture? Judging by what I think I can see do not trim. Two plants in one pot?The leaves power your grow and you dont seem to have enough now. You generally take leaves from the bottom when they cant get much light because they are blocked by heavy foliage above and for air flow. In your case nothing is blocking much light or the airflow.
Its a learning experience, you will get it. Keep asking questions on this forum. Theres a lot of good help here.

If it were my plant I would not trim. There is not enough foliage to block any light or hinder airflow. The leaves are the engines that drives the growth. Keep as many as possible as long as they dont block to to much light (needed for photosynthesis). Also to many leaves can (but not in your case) can hinder airflow causing other issues like powdery mildew.Just added some more pics. Thanks so much for your help!!
