Pruning leafs?

I'm wondering regarding threatening leaves, is it a good idea to prove the big families that are at the very bottom of the plant? It's become very difficult to water.

Any feedback be gratefully appreciated.

threatening leaves??

prove the big families?? (prune the fan leaves)? I take the big ones at the bottom after I have tied everything to a cage and spread it open.

its called lollipoping the plant and its a good ideal

just remove all the leaves on the bottom 6" of the plant, this helps with airflow and watering

based on a plant more than 18" tall

I am an indoor grower so I may have this wrong but
is not better to have the canopy off the floor, so it reduces the chance of mold, bud root, insects getting on the plants, makes watering easier, and less dirty crappy bud at the base of the plant ?

Sorry I meant prune , these phones aren't so smart... Lol , so it's okay to remove some of the ones at the bottom?. Should any of the other fan leaves be removed?

The only reason you ever have to remove any leaves out of doors is to improve air circulation..

Even if the big leaves at the bottom I prohibiting you from watering them efficiently? The plants look so healthy and bushy I'd hate to remove them but it looks like it's prohibiting me from watering and at the same time I think it's shading some of the other branches too much. But what do I know I'm just an amateur.
