To defoilate or not to defoilate.. that is the question!

I've always heard that you shouldn't "defoilate" auto flower cannabis, especially if they're a sativa to boot. With that being said, (looking at my pics for reference) should I do more defoliation? Would doing so really increase my yield significantly? Thanks

you really dont want to defoliate in flower, usually you do defoliate right before the flower stretch, then go in with a small razor to nip off any of the very bottom flower nodes just as they reveal themselves. Folks that take advertisement-level pictures for cannabis basically starting taking the leafs off to show off the plant and the practice kinda became fashionable i guess... nothing useful about it during flower though ! 🚀

Hi buddy some say the other like this. if you google photosynthesis you won't say anything. untereum because of popcorn buds yes but above I would leave everything on that doesn't fly myself :-) if you think the buds need light then I wonder why you don't tie the leaf down or up but cut it away :-)

I always do. Specially the bottom. I lollipop all the branches and end up with denser bud stucture.
