I would do mote of a selection trimming and pruning. You go too much and will change your results for less yield

It's totally up to you lots of growers strip the bottom smaller branches off it will ensure everything is getting to the bigger buds rather than the plant using energy on the lower smaller buds also remove any leaves blocking out light 🙏💚

Remove or not new branches Hi Growers! I'm undecided whether to remove the new lower shots, you can understand which ones from the photos (see also diary). Is it better to remove them by promoting higher grow and keep that part clean as a structure? My instinct says yes, I am looking for some confirmation
