Defoliation

No, you're not going to get bigger buds by cutting those side branches. Its a bit late anyway

Hey based on the pics, it looks like you already removed some of the bigger fan leaves. You can remove a little more but don’t take away too much. They still need the leaves to absorb the light. When you remove the longer it doesn’t stress her out too much unless you go too high.
Hope that helps and happy growing

Defoliate or not ?Do I need to defoliate her harder ? I Think some of the buds are blocking the sun out of others, I am afraid the buds won't be fat. I am also afraid if I defoliate wrongly she could lose a lot of photosynthesis. What do you guys think ? I should try to lst her down a lot more5 years ago
