Who told you that? You shouldn't remove any leaves unless there hiding a bud and you cant move it out of the way.

so have I killed them all or will they start producing again? It's a major loss if they cannot recover.

original advice giver needs a punch in the mouth.
they still have some leaves ?

In all honesty without knowing how much you trimmed and what your plants look like it will be hard to tell, however you probably have not killed your plants. You have most likely severly inhibited there ability to produce photosynthisis. Big fan leaves are like giant batteries that fuel and contribute to growth. So if you just took the big leaves you took the big batteries out of the flashlight, it will not turn the light off just dim it signifigantly.

So your plants will most likely still grow, assuming you didnt trim them naked, just at a much slower rate until they can grow some new "batteries"

Hope this helps, pictures would help tremendously

after I trimmed it. they said the leaves stole the nutrients

and I thought autos couldn't "regrow" because the life span was internally set.is there anything through the roots I could give them to help?

No you havn't killed them,but from now on lrave them on because the plant draw food from them towards the end of flowering.
