Yes you should defoliate whatever the fan leafs are blocking the light straight on to those buds that would encourage bigger and better flower . hope this information help have a happy grow

Defoliating dense and bushy plant in flower
I think I know what I can do better next time, but for now, what can I do to manage such a dense and bushy plant? I defoliated five days ago, but she keeps bouncing back quickly. Should I continue removing leaves as needed, or would that cause too much stress? Day 25

I would like to Over-Veg one of my girls into a MONSTER. I require advice on how best to grow her big with thick stalks. Should I use a deep pot or a wide pot (child's pool) and is there any recommendations as to which nutrients will help her grow into a massive bitch?

Smaller stems under the net during Flowering (Defoliation and ScrOG)
I put a ScrOG net and now I am wondering if I should delete everything under the net or leave also the smaller leaves and stems for the flowering. You can see in my diary how the plants are. I'm afraid that leaving also smaller stems under the net would decrease my harvest

Alright - I need to know, is it time to harvest or close to? I have some photos in my diary that show some dark amber trichomes, a fair bit I'd say.

Can someone tell me how high I can go with the CO2? It's my first time using CO2, so I'm still a bit unsure, and I don't want to mess it up now by giving too much and ruining everything.

When to start defoliating
Can I defoliate nodes one and two now? Her grow rate has been really slow so I thought I could get rid of one and two so she focuses growth on height.

Should I defoliate that 8-top Critical (the bigger of the two plants in 9L pots)? I feel it's getting very bushy and leaves getting in the way of light for bud sites. How would you go about defoliating it?

#3 had seeds at harvest (5). I don't know if she is a hermi or if one of my other plants is, or if my other plants were pollinated and I didn't notice. She did have a big injury earlier in the grow. Any ideas what happened? I'm so confused and disappointed!

What is the ideal amount of defoliation? Is it possible to trim too many leaves and stress the plants?

Defoliation/pruning at start of week 4?
Is it too late to remove the lower fan leaves/side shoots when I’m going into week 4? She’s really dense and bushy and was hoping to thin her out. I should have been more aggressive at the beginning, but I wanted to see if I can still remove much material this late in the game.
