I'm not a ran of removing leaves.Hi @Bill284
Would you loose the yellowing fan leaves?
Although they are getting light .. or wait for them to completely yellow?
I let them help the plant until they die and fall off.
The value of those 2 is not much.
If they bother you by all means they can go.
Anything that can give energy to a bud I'd keep.
Those 2 aren't doing much down there.
Hope everything else is going well.
Take care.
Stay safe
