It’s best to keep your canopy full during the vegetative stage to capture as many photons as possible. So I would not trim if it is not needed. I like to expose my branches to more light by tucking down the big fan leaves covering them. This will help those branches grow faster.
It looks like you’re about to be entering into the stretch phase of the plant. You can expect them to double if not triple in size in the coming weeks. It’s quite amazing how much they grow once they start to flower. So all your growth you are looking for will happen soon.
It looks like you are doing a great job and they are thriving so far.
I hope this helps.

For a plant that's often used to help with anxiety, why's it so stressed all the time? Lol
Your plant isn't big enough to worry about any real defoliation. Once it hits flower it's probably gonna stretch like crazy, then you might need to reevaluate.

Why?
What for??
Just remember.....less leaves = less energy being made = less potential growth.
There is absolutely no reason to defoliate, especially a plant that small.

I don't think it needs it.
If anything lower the lights intensity or raise it up to encourage more spacing between the nodes. This will help with airflow and make it taller.
