Leave them!! Only cut them if it's really bushy and not getting good light penetration or good air flow. Yours don't have a lot of fan leaves yet. Fan leaves are the big leaves under the branches. Hope that helps!! Have a good day!!!
There is only one proven way to improve indoor cannabis growing by a pruning method that is very difficult for advanced growers. It may yield all of 15% more for a heck of a lot of work...or you add another plant in the corner and forget about it.
It is stupid to do it really, but if you hunt on here you will find a super long thread on how to prune properly and it is not fun.
In all other cases understand the plant is doing what it needs and knows what it is doing. The leaves do all the work that make the plant from what gets transported up out of the medium, not the stalks. So cutting leaves is cutting the life supply to the plant. They are the solar panels so you are wasting your lights when you cut them.
When they yellow and come off easily it is time to pull them.
