Defoliation??

When is the best time to defoliate when scrogging? I know this question might be a bit vague but just wondered if there was a more suitable timing with the plants cycle.

High Braya19, You can HST her till 2 weeks before switching to flower mode (12/12). Than she still had enough time to recover before she starts flowering. The first defoliation can be done right before you switch her to flower mode. And the second (AND LAST) defolitation can be done 2 weeks after switching to flower mode. After 2 weeks into flower mode she starts to focus on her buds and doesn't make new leaves anymore. So you do not want to cut away to much. You only want to do the defoliation to make sure that you have enough airflow between your plants. And because you want the light to reach all your colas. Happy Growing! 😋

2 weeks into flowering I do a more agressive defoliation if needed., but I clean out under side of plant as well at this time. I don't go too extreme. Plant needs leaves to make energy. I do selective defoliating after that.
