Hi there, You should only defoliate if there is a good reason.Like do some defoliation to lower down tent humidity,to make a good air flow if too bushy.Defoliate some leaves If they are damaged or shaded below the canopy.May be some lollipopping if there are too many pop corn buds underneath.Other than those, I wouldn’t do.Happy growing... ✌️

Hi, Personally, I remove those leaves. The plant is using the sugars from the dying leaf as food so some people leave them on. I prefer to have increased air flow and light penetration as I am not worried about the plants getting enough food. They always have acess to nutrients and can make the sugars when they need. Hope this helps,
