Sticky icky Green Gelato Outdoor

Hello 🤙🏼 This time I decided to do some defoliation… temperatures outside are getting cooler but my girl still needs time 😓 thats why I removed lots of big, old and damaged leaves! But what I also removed are some of the hidden long branches, cuz I think that they are sucking away lots of nutrients and take lots of energy to be there.. but will get maybe just some extra small buds.. So I decided to stick them into a soil under my plant, so Some of the excess nutrients will hopefully get to them 🙏🏼 What do you guys think? Have I done the right thing? Pr was I supposed to let everything put? Thank you for tour time 💪🏼 Happy growing everyone!! Peace ✌️🏼
