Hi All, when is it best to defoliate? During veg is what it seems or can you also do during bloom?

never but its best used most in early to mid flowering when she pumps out her last set of fans if they are covering bud sites you can remove them to let light get to the bud but I would only do so if you couldn't move the leaf or tuck it somewhere out the way every healthy fan you remove from her is taking away energy she could be using to grow faster and better :)
