Yes you can trim off your bottom branches that aren't getting light it will promote more top growth where the light is penetrating.

my bottoms were to lengthy with small leafs, if your branches dont get enough light, in the end those buds will be popcorn like, i cut mine to divert the growth, if u want light to get threw, eight remove fan leafs carfully, only taking away what she can handle, or do lst.

oh my way of trimming usaully removeing the oldest leafs on the stalks. meaning the first leaf under the new branches, these are not nedded once the branch it as long as ur hand. start with those and see if she will need more light penetration

Dude seriously, you gotta use the words "trim, bushy, girl, penetrating, and "bottom" all in one sentence? Welcome to RIU!
