My Brother, the point of this thread WAS INTENDED to receive your opinions about the WW high experience, but it has has been hijacked by overly-vocally-and-sometimes-condescending critics.
Of course I agree that daily / constant cutting will harm the plant IN FLOWERING.
...but what makes a respected grower at this forum? the most posts?
Of course I agree that to have a crop will help me to trim-to-smoke less, but let me get there with bud harvest first. I am replying to you because you are nice GrowDude. I know you being a longtime lurker. I don't like other condescending replies I receive.
It has been 10 days and big female is flowering (non-trimmed whatsoever) she is so beautiful and leafy and at least 200 "bud-points" that I have created in my cropping/trimming experiements and trials; and I trimmed the other female yesterday to smoke. Today, as I see more buds on her are now orange-ing, she is also forming what look like small places for seeds which holds each orange pistil. It is beautiful. Those places for seeds are becoming covered in crystals and even the male pollen sacs are covered in crystals. The branches and leaves and and main stem and every part of the plant are so fragrantly lovely! Like another type of beautiful scent, like Roses, Jasmine, and other such creations.
Today I trimmed up the male and dried and just smoked 2 bowls. I am good for the evening, nice and mellow and high, thank God. I like marijuana. Marijuana is Gift of God.
I have had fun trimming and smoking, but of course I would like to live off good buds from harvest to harvest. But one can trim-to-smoke with WW marijuana and it will survive for years!
We absolutely MUST re-legalize this plant to its rightful place as beneficial gift. Smoke the buds, recycle the leaves and stems and branches with hemp products to make paper (instead of using trees) TO SAVE AND PROLONG THE LIFE OF THE RAINFORESTS!
...I need to smoke each night at the very least to unwind, so cannot help myself since if I purchase Hashish I would be supporting Hizbullah and the Taliban / Al-Qaida. So I trim-to-smoke to not support Terrorism.
Before the 20th century, marijuana was legal for all of human history.
Let us all grow and be civil-disobedient "en masse" and re-legalize it in state and country referendums. Let us re-legalize this truly incredible plant.

None of this is the point.
The point is if you dont pull off its fan leaves maybe it will grow nice enough so that you DONT HAVE TO SMOKE FAN LEAVES.
You will be smoking buds untill your next harvest (of buds).
And im sure if it doesnt die its going to make buds but what does this prove? nothing. Until you grow side by side a plant with little to no leaves to a plant with its leaves you wont realize the difference.
