No need to tuck them until they are blocking flowers/new growth. If you're in veg just leave them alone. If in flower tuck them under or behind another leaf to get the new growth out of the shadow.

well what if you are in limited space and your plants are flowering.. say there is no real way to 'tuck' them.. would it cause serious damage to your plant if you did trim back some of the fan leaves that were covering your buds and putting shade on them instead of light?.. Sorry I'm curious, because that is what I've been doing with my first 2 plants and it seems to have done no harm to them..?

never trim fan leaves the plant need them to absorb light among other stuff. especially if your gonna flower within the next 4 weeks or take clones. you dont want to harm the plant. its like an animal that breaks a limb. takes time to heal, will be better but takes time to heal not grow
