I had to do this with my orange sherbet auto.. fan leaves were so fat it covered everything inside.. so I've been taking a set of fan leaves every 3 days or so.. u gotta let that fan leaf do some of its job at least, before u take it from her.

I would wait its so young.. your about to get some rapid growth let the next set of fan leaves get a little bigger first.. the "baby" sites literaly jist started it won't hurt them to give them another week without as much light... or, ur plants tall enough, if its strong enough tie the top over to the side for a few days.. top wont grow much but it'll give them baby's a chance to catch up.

Since you ask, I'll assume you don't have a plan for what you want from your plant, and I'll recommend you don't do it. However. You can.. It'll slow the growth of the plant, especially growth coming above the leaves you cut, so if you're okay with that, then go ahead. - If It's an auto tho, I'd say a definite no tho. You'd just get a tiny plant if you took them now. But If it's a photo, you can have it vegging as long as you want, so a slowed growth can have benefits depending on your plans for it. All that said.. Don't be afraid to experiment. Failure is just as valuable as success, if you learn from it and improve based on what you've learned
