i wouldnt defoliate in flower, you dont want any shock at all, so just put it on cruise control and ride it out. folks overestimate the importance of slight shadows, afterall you're in a reflective box so even the bottom and side leafs always get some light. THey're healthy and not showing any signs of problems . Does that make sense? Hope this helps! 🚀

Thanks for the replies! I always heard that defoliation up to 3 weeks in flower is ok. They are now almost 4 weeks in flower. I defoliated very slowly to avoid shock.

Too crowded. Dont be aftraid. Take off all fanleaves at once they will look very bald at first but your plants are healthy and will recover With end results u never seen before. If you done defoliating u should see the bottom very easy and it should look like sticks with budsites (dont cut the small fanleaves on the budsites)

I'd take a few more off each one.The one's facing inwards that shade the buds.There's two schools of thought.Iv been told from the early 90s not to take the leaves off but in the last several years some people ahve been stripping the majority of leaves off twice during flower.I now take around a dozen off each,just the ones that shade the buds.

Defoliar o no defoliarTengo 2 automáticas a las que he aplicado LST, y ahora hay muchas hojas juntas tapándose las unas a las otras. Cultivo en exterior con luz artificial adicional (17h de luz en total) y es la semana 7 . Creo que es mejor no defoliar las auto, pero viendo esto ya no estoy seguro.

Clean them up or leave them aloneI’m having trouble deciding if I should just let these girls keep going how I have been because they are absolutely amazing or should I do a big clean up and the canopy and lower canopy to allow some more light to penetrate for some fuller nugs?

Advice on defoliation/LST - getting too chaotic hereIs it fine to cut off some of the big fan leaves this early or should i just tie them down to expose the tops to more light? If defoliation is fine already please let me know which leaves can be cut off, and if not i also kindly take advices on tying them down. Thanks!
