Yes. WhAzzA SchwAzzer? Years after doing what most others do; defoliating just before flowering and again at about 3 weeks in when bud sites are developing and you can see what leaves are shielding light - I found out some young upstart in Vegas wrote a book on it, calls it Schwazzing and charges $500 for the book and the information.
Basically most indoor growers are schwazzers and don’t know it.
Basic ABC’s of Schwazzing

• A - defoliate just before flowering to expose all potential bud sites
• B - defoliate around 3 weeks into flowering once bud sites are developing insuring fan leaves don’t cover bud sites
• C - fold leaves as much as possible instead of removing them after the B defoliation. after week 5 slowly start removing leaves that have grown out of buds.

Contrary to some - I like the link. Shows exactly what the question refers to and a nice addition as posting video other than links is not really an option. 👍🏼✌️
