Shouldn’t I defoliate to allow light to the lower leaves?

Should I trim down, remove leaves to allow the passage of light to the lower leaves. As lower leaves are not getting enough light!

You haven't provided your growing situation, so I can't answer definitively. I always recommend reviewing GWE's defoliation tutorials, as a baseline. I have been blessed with generous folk who talked me through it, even with all the information provided. Generally yes. Only the big fan leaves that are blocking the light to the bud sites should be removed. Tucking them behind the buds is another strategy, especially if your plant needs the "armor" discussed in GWE's tutorial. Good luck!!!

Wtf. This site is becoming more boring and more boring everyday. Tutorials are outdated (not all) the new ones are more commercialized. And somehow clowns like this person asking stupid questions just keep coming. And even if you do give advice they’ll just go with what they read somewhere and just add Cal/Mag. Lol. Then come back and hope you point them to the real magical bottle that is a fix all. Lol

Thank you Cali for speaking what i've been thinking for a long time now. It's becoming more of a playground for unsupervised children with no parents.

Cali Just like everything, one has to learn to separate the grain from the chaff...
