Entlauben, oder nicht entlauben? Titan F1 RQS

The micro drops of water on the surface of the leaves is due to evapotranspiration of the leaf which is in contact just above it. If there is enough air circulating in the canopy, there is no risk of bud mold. Defoliation is useful for getting rid of large fan leaves that are completely in the shade, or that block light on the buds that are underneath. It is also done to improve the air circulation in the heart of the plant. But in any case, you will always have leaves touching each other and these micro drops of water. Moreover, during flowering, you can lower the humidity of your box, the plant does not need as much humidity as in growth. And on the contrary, the drier the climate, the more resin is produced 😉✌️

Prune as little as you can to avoid condensation. Touching walls is another good reason. These are disease vectors that can potentially ruin a crop or at least cause a headache. Leaves do several important things beyond absoring light. They are the lungs. CO2 intake is directly realted to surface area of leaves. You may already know that CO2 is the limiting factor for photosynthesis? Don't limit co2 intake further than necessary. Leave the leaves! when you can :P

If you're getting condensation then I think you have your answer. Either defol or increase airflow with more fans.

At 47 percent humidity, you should be more than good. I'm in the same boat except my tent has been hovering around 70-80 percent and I am still not sure if I want to go crazy with defoliation because I have already defoliated this plant 4 times(pablo escobar), and I do not want to disturb the trichomes. if you can get in there was I would maybe remove some of the leaves in the middle of the canopy to get some airflow. remember pests and mold are more likely to attack unhealthy plants and yours look nice and healthy. adding silica can help prevent powdery mildew by strengthening the cell wall and preventing the mold to take hold

pluck the leaves touching each other and keep up the air flow.
