I would leave them as they are, they’re young and growing nicely they need those leaves for energy right now ☺️🌱

Defoliating question- early flower
I'm wondering when I should defoliate again. There's a ton of different methods out there and I'm kind of lost. I feel like I should cull the fan leaves to let the buds breath and get more light.

Defoliating or continuing lst only?
Should I defoliate before flower?she's really bushy down low and has some huge fan leaves which are blocking out a bit of the light to bud sites. Should I just continue to lst her and wait until the lower bud sites grow out more or should I defoliate a bit before flowering?

Trimming in flower?
Thoughts on trimming in flower? I trimmed underneath and lightly defoliated the top about 2 weeks in to flower. I'm mid-way through week 5 now, not sure if I should just leave them or trim some lower larf. Not planning on touching fan leaves until final week before harvest.

Defoliation regularity help
Just wondering how often I should be doing defoliation? At the moment I’m kind of snipping off a few leaves n new growth as I see them each day. Is that too frequent? Should I wait n do a good amount at once maybe every week?

Defoliate further or stop?
I am in 3rd week of flower. I did defoliation right before switch to flower and at the end of second week. That was 5 days ago. I feel I want to defoliate more, to expose more lower buds to light, but I afraid it will be contra productive. What do you think?

Defoliate?
Will I defoliate the 1st node site as shown in the picture below, when I top her? There doesn't seem to be much growth there the last week and I'm worried that there is wasted nutrients going to this site? 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

Defoliate?
Is it too late to give these girls a hair cut? I’ve heard you don’t want to do this in flower stage as it may shock the plant and eliminate necessary mobile nutrients stored in leaves. Also does anyone have tips on an easy way to do this with a scrog net or should I remove it ?
