Defoliation early flower

Ok I’ll go with my instinct and wait it out, like I said it’s not causing an issue there happy and not showing any signs of damage, appreciate everyone’s input 🤙

I defoliate at day 21 of flower and that is my last defoliation, when i do defoliate.

Thanks Angus That’s what I was thinking it’s not causing a huge issue my environment is steady with RH 55% just didn’t know if it would damage the leaves, but I guess even if it does it makes some easy leaves to select for trimming next week, Appreciate your input dude

Appreciate the input wicket, on my last grow they were quite stretchy and leggy so it wasn’t to much of an issue, I defoliated a week before I flipped these based on my previous (first grow) and it just wasn’t enough, I was thinking to do the same and just taking the worst ones off until next week, currently I’m just lifting or tucking them in different directions to get some airflow in the worst areas, My last grow I just took some of here and there rather then all in one go and it seemed to turn out good, but I guess it’s all a learning curve for the time being Thanks again for your input dude

im in the same boat as you right now. almost at the end of week 2 of flower and it got way too much for my taste and i couldn't wait anymore. so many branches didn't get to the light because of this and airflow was crap again, i totally lost overlook and control, so i took some off and will do the rest next week. but i guess it would be the best to wait for end of week 3 when they are done with stretching, at least that is what everyone recommend. i don't know what is worse when it comes to stress. do it multiple times but not take as much leaves each time with enough time in between so they can recover or just do it at once and take it all off then at once. i just did what i think was right and i would recommend the same for you. so do what YOU think is right, don't just count days because everyone says so. maybe their plants don't get bushy like yours because of other genetics or they don't stretch as much or whatever. but well that is just me and im a beginner, just wanted to tell my opinion.
