Should I defoiliate some big fan leafs?

maybe where bending isn't enough to avoid daily condensation where/if you have leaves physically overlapping each other.
leaves do more than just absorb light. keep as many as you can.

I'd leave her as she is for now unless they are causing a high RH. Looks spread out enough to leave as many leaves as possible.

Should I do a pre harvest defoliation a week before harvest?What are the benefits and consequences of defoliating a week before harvest? Is it good or bad? I have tons of foliage up top and need it to go away. It's too late in flower, but a week before will open up the canopy to the lower bud sites. Any and all help is welcome. Thanks!

With my membrane, it looks like after topping, the upper 2 shoots have formed double, so 2 are stuck together, hope you understand what I mean. Has anyone experienced this before?

Should I defoliate? Is it too late to defoliate (Autoflower)?I want to use photosynthesis from leaves as much as possible, but worry light will not penetrate to hidden buds.Will buds in shadow still develop but at slower rate - or will they be airy, popcorn buds at harvest?

Early flower stage adviseSo the branches are kind of short and my lighting area for bloom iss also 30x30 in a 60x60 tent. Should I try to open the canopy more with LST? Defoliate more in the middle? Or maybe both? Maybe I should leave it like that... Im excited about the flowers and don't want to f*ck up

Leaf it alone?So I feel like these colas are more sugar leaves than buds. Should I have defoliated them more? It’s week 17 is it too late to be thinking about defoliation? I just want to get the best out of these last couple weeks. Trichomes appear glassy/clear. Would u agree?

Trimming around buds pre week 14I’m wondering.. should I be trimming the leaves around the buds so the buds get more light? It just occurred to me that I don’t see all those leaves on other diaries? Would it help the buds mature with the extra light and nutrients not goes to leaves? The video is from a week ago5y ago

Defoliate the center or leave her alone?My girl is short and dense due to early manifolding and LST. The center is crowded and there's not much light penetration or air flow there, though I do have fans going. I'm tempted to defoliate some older leaves crowding the center. Don't want to stunt it, though. Thoughts?

Wedding Glue auto has WAY too many leaves. What do i do with her?What do I do with this overly leafy plant? I'm pretty sure the foliage caused very airy buds and tops. What should I do here? Major defoliation before 48 hours of dark? Leave it, cut the branches off when harvested and run a dry trim or with this should I run wet trim? Thanks!
