When doing defoliation, are you removing these small "buds" (see pictures) that are not getting enough light?

I certainly do - and have done just today! They're not going to amount to even a half-way decent popcorn bud so why waste the plant's energy on them? Snip, snip!!
Good luck!

I remove them. I call them "suckers" because the growth is the same as a tomato plant's "suckers"

My grow tent drops down to 65 (75-80 with the fan on low settings during 16 hour light cycles) during the off 8 hours of the light cycle, I would like to establish a more consistent temperature, or at least ideally keep the grow tent closer to 70 while the lights are off. How?Week 1

Defoliation technique?How many times can I defoliate during flower or how often can I do it?
Beginning of week 3 and I've defoliated heavily twice already but the canopy is overly thick again.
Will I stress my flowering girls if I keep the defoliation at every 10 days?
