Should I remove fan leaves from my auto flower? I wonder since it is so crowded, I worry a bit that the leaves are pressing against the buds. But maybe that isn't a problem? I've read that removing leaves is unnecessary and stressful for the plant.

I don't believe in defoliation at all. The plant "knows" what it is doing. Besides, if it would not need those leaves, it would not grow them in the first place! Remember too.........ALL of the plants energy to grow (the buds) is made in/by the leaves. Less leaves = less energy being made = less potential growth. It really is that simple! 35-40 years ago when I first started growing, people told me that removing leaves would "let more light onto the flowers and they would grow more", so naturally I tried it many times. Then an old Hippy saw my plants one day and couldn't cope with what he saw, he was absolutely disgusted with what I had done. So he told me to grow two plants, one untouched and one defoliated, which I did. After this I never defoliated again!

Recently I’ve came to an idea to defoliate slowly throughout the last weeks of growth when buds are almost done. Because I would have to trim the plant anyway so why not trim it while it’s growing so I don’t have to do it later and that way the plant would think it is being attacked and increase thc percentage as a defensive mechanism. You don’t lose nothing when you defoliate in last weeks like I said but if you do it in the vegetative stage with autoflowers it will definitely negatively affect your plants
