To thin a few leaves or not

I have a Bubba Kush plant that has some massive leaves and also small little buds all around as well.
As you can see they are very large and wide leaves.


Should I take some off to thin this out a little to get some light further in?


Any opinions are appreciated

i wouldn't trim a single leaf. big leaves soak up much light to form big buds. that's my thought

Not on this plant. When its ready to harvest, only remove the upper buds allowing those smaller ones to get more light and bulk up.

Trim the leaves that cover budding points on the lateral branches. Large fan leaves are nice to grab light, but if they are covering budding points they aren't worth keeping.

dont touch her she is beautiful. those buds will find away to get light by growing towards it.
