Bonjour Dr Mambo , tout dépend tu peux avoir avoir beaucoup de réponses différentes. Perso ,je ferais juste une légère défoliation. Pour permettre un meilleur accès de la lumière à l'interieur de ta canopée. Je ferais aussi du LST pour permettre a tes branches secondaires de ce développer. Meilleurs Voeux pour cette année 2021 avec beaucoup de fleurs et de verdures. 👉🤩🌿🌱🎍👨‍🌾😁😁

Im planning on my final defoliation to be on Day 21 flower. Should I remove every fan leaf/any leaf not directly attached to the bud or is that too much? How do some of you go about your final defoliation?
