I'd probably defoliate the ones larger than your hand that's covering up everything. Those would be all Id take. Happy Growing! 👊

Shall I defoliate again?
I defoliated heavily starting week 6, but now 5 days later it's getting pretty dense again. Shall I do another round or would it stress her out and mess with her photosynthesis? Please see diary for the progress.

So, what do you think about the twisted and curled leaves? Tobacco Mosaic Virus, Alfafa Mosaic Virus? I used alfafa meal in the soil mixture.... What would you guess? I don't think it is a def. because I used azomite. =)

Possible Over Watering. Can I get an experts look?
My plants leaves are looking droopy and condensed. I am worried that I may be watering them too much. I water them with a gallon of water every 3 days with 3 teaspoons of "Grow Big" added and mixed into the water pot. Do they look normal for a 4 week old plant?

Defoliate or not (autoflower)
Should I defoliate some of my larger fan leaves on this autoflower? If so, at what point during growth should I do that? This is my first grow so another question is if it’s even worth me defoliating.

Should I cut some leaves?
Pistils can be seen now, and in a few days there will be buds also. Now, that I ve put this floodlight, she grows well. Folia got quite dense, and I would like to support the emerging of the buds of the next weeks. The leaves above the pistils are quite young. Should I cut some?
