I'm worried that the larger fan leaves are taking too much light from the bud sites and slowing development? Is it too early for lollypopping (is that the right term!)? If you watch my video it gives a better look.

Hey mate. Yes you can cut some of those fan leaves to allow light to penetrate. Another option is to set up some side lighting for your plants. If you don’t want to use the extra power then LST during veg stage can help keep the plant low to the ground and boost bud production within the limited range which the light can actually penetrate.

Best way to cure your harvest? Any tips or best practices would handy. I know I need mason jars and humidity packs and a dark place. I read I should leave the plant alive but in total darkness for 3 days before I harvest? I am so confused, but I know curing is very important.

Wet trim and get the kief?Is it worth it to pause the drying process and wet trim? I am mostly asking this since I read it's easier to wet trim and I can hopefully extract some kief from the sugar leaves with a grinder in the process. What are your thoughts, leave it as is, or get that kief?

How much more time for this stunted growth?Looking at photos, weeks, trichomes - some are milky some are transparent. The main cola has evolved, remaining colas are growing. The plant was stunted due to excess nutrition and PH earlier, that's why small plant. So how many days more till I chop?(30%ember?but still estimate)
