Pre Harvest Trim?

So I will be chopping down my ladies in 2 days, and I decided to remove some of the larger discolored and shadowing fan leaves (maybe 5% total of all fan leaves) the big girls with no sugar on them to open up the bottom a little bit. Some may say too little too late but I am wondering if this was stupid obviously a question to ask before acting but I figured I'd ask anyway. Thanks *Cheers*

I did some more research and it seems like I might be alright I have been syphoning out the water everyday and replacing it with fresh water it has slowly getting lighter with each syphon so it is Flushing out proper I'm assuming. The trimming also opened up alot of Bud Sites and didn't seem to have any negative effects. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks again *cheers*

It's ok to remove leaves that are dying and the ones that are blocking bud sites no worries
