Train the branches away from each other, first. If that is not sufficent and you have a lot of leaves overlapping and causing constant condensation, selectively remove as few leaves as possible. Avoid creating empty gaps in canopy, as light capture is the whole goal, lol. increasing how much light completely misses the plant is not a positive.
In future, have a better plan to avoid an over-crowded canopy. When done right, you shouldn't have to make tough decisions about defoliation. Avoid it. Waste less growth, time and resources, too.
10 colas bunched up isn't going to end well... Plant on left looks fine as is. The one on right looks a bit over-crowded. Sometimes need to let it grow out horizontally enough before you top.
Keep spreading it out as best you can. You only need about 2.5-3 colas per sq ft to maximize yield (relative to end-size of canopy)... going beyond that mostly just causes same mass but more/smaller buds. Generally means more time trimming too. If you stick to that, you don' tneed to defoliate at all.
