The plant needs air and light to the mid or thick fan leaves. So those buds get bigger I try to remove the ones that are covering the flowers from the light.
Siccmade said:No my yield in actuality did increase. Like I said my plants are very bushy. I thinned out the thick area. Not 100% removed all but after a while the plant doesn't use the fan leaf. Hense why people remove them mid to late flower they are no longer needed. And if light doesn't grow the flower then y do people say get your lights
as close as possible it will help bud density and yield. Since I thinned out the thick areas they do like it. my plants the mid section looks more dense.

Next grow you may want to remove all the big fans off one plant during flower.
You can then do a side by side to see which plant yields more.
