I have trimmed a few.. if they block the light and I cant tuck them back I have cut them off.. never any more than I absolutely need to.. I agree with CB.. they are there for a reason ;)

just think of them fan leaves as if they were big ol solar pannels;)

the more ya take off, the less light it can obtain which means less energy for ya plant to do its thing;)

trim other leaves yea but not the fans basicly.
