Should I trim the fan leaves on this 43 day old plant?

The plant is about half the size of the other of the exact same strain. Just curious if I should trim quite a few fan leaves to allow light in. First 2 pics are of the bushier one, second 2 are of the one with better light distribution.

Hi fella, I can see about 3 - 4 leaves I would take from the bushier one, the big fan leaves. The second one looks fine, don't take too much at once a max of 10 - 20% is generally acknowledge as best practice, all the best 👍

You could remove a couple to open it up a little. You don't have to trim out a whole lot really to bring more light to those lower branches. That one dark one toward the top of your plant is probably responsible for most of your shading.

I wouldn't. Everything has good light exposure. No reason to trim

naaah there is no need for trimming anything, the leaves are the motor of the plant bringing life into all corners if shes inflower, you can clean up bottom area, and tucking away the one or the other leaf i see no need for taking awa anything in this stage, the plant tries to reproduce, and the energy is missed for development
