As far as what you're saying about the plant biology you are correct according to everything I've read. The Fan leaves are your main source of photosynthesis. They are what sucks up the light / energy & disburses it throughout the plant. Obviously the roots play a big role also. But my thinking is "if I have 5 - 10 giant fan leaves up top blocking the light / energy from getting to all the other leaves they are doing more harm then good."
Like I said before ... We all have our own way of doing things. This works for me so far so I'll keep on till I find a better way.
