Defoliate!
You want to direct all the plants power to the flowers. That means training the plant to be most effective:
Leaves and shoots that get no light are a waste of your plants energy. They won’t grow and in a worst case scenario promote humidity and mold.
Get rid of all leaves that take away light from your biggest colas and get rid of all leaves and shoots that don’t get enough light.
Cannabis is a weed. So you can start by defoliating a little and see how she reacts. She will recover amazingly well, I’m sure.
Two rules:
1) start with small shoots and leaves at the bottom and leave the top fan leaves as they soak up most of the light.
2) always water a LOT after defoli

Just fine, no need to defoliate.
All those leaves are making energy for the plant to grow its biggest flowers.
Less leaves = less energy being made = less potential flower growth.
You have lollipopped, that is the best situation in this case.

hello brother in my opinion from the crisped edge of leaves also a little yellowing color of leaves i think you are over feeding her if you remove leaves the stress will get double and simply will just stun her.
dont over feed and let her recover a little you did defoliation before as i can see the 1/3 lower branches are removed and did good just be a little gentle with her.
so lower you e.c a little and let her the soil get more dryer then feed with a little lower amount of water remember in growing lower is always better .
