Hello. This is what I would do. When you see the flowers coming out, wait a few days more. I do my final cutting and pruning on the 3rd week of flowering. I want the plant to be in flowering before I send the plant into it's final shock. After about 3 days your plants should recover and will go right in to full flower. Rule of thumb: any thing that is growing down (branch or leaves) get cut off. Leave 4 to 6 fan leaves on the end of each branch. Trim up in the middle for good air flow. Take off any leaves that aren't getting light or are blocking light from getting to the lower bud sites. Taking any more that 1/3 of the plant off will put the plant into shock, so be carful not to take too much. Fan leaves produce lots of energy and sugar for the the plants Hope that helps. Good Luck. Chuck.

Growers choice/preference. Some people remove almost all the bottom leaves, some people remove any leaves showing signs of dying off, some people leave them for as long as possible to allow the plant to suck the nutrients out of them first. Safest thing you can do is remove any leaves that dont appear healthy, as well as making sure that you have adequate air flow through the plant to prevent things like mold. Everything after that is up for debate.
