Let it be, those big healthy green leaves are providing all the energy your plant NEEDS to grow her biggest flowers. 10 of the small "bud leaves" can not produce as much energy as one big fan leaf. Leaves should only be removed when they go yellow. Fewer healthy green leaves = less energy produced = smaller flowers. It is that simple. Plants can not "channel" energy. All energy is used throughout the whole plant. If you remove the healthy green leaves, your plant will just want to grow new ones to bring the potential energy production levels back up again. While growing the new leaves, she will delay flower growth, resulting in smaller and possibly less flower volume. Hope this helps..... Organoman.
