I just need to know if I should be trimming the fan leaves on the top!? I have lollipopped the lower stalks and kept everything clean under there. I just have a LOT of bud sites in my 4x4 first tent. I don’t know if I’m better off trimming upper fan leaves to allow light penetration or if they’re serving more of a purpose as solar panels remained in tact I’m including pictures. I’m open to any and all advice as I said this is my first grow and I have put a lot of work into it and just want it to be the best it possibly can .. thanks in advance

Oh boy, I hope you have access to all sides of that tent. Looks like you have a jungle in there.
I run into a similar situation on my annual indoor grow. I try and remove interior growth that isn't getting good light penetration.

I do have access although getting around to the other side is a pain

Trim leaves up until the middle of the 4th week of flower. Don't take any off after that point though.

Deff a mini jungle and do you think it’s too late to trim ? Switched flower January 1st ? Do I pluck leaves off in the middlE still to open up?

Bro, strip em. Get some snippers and start cutting off leaves about half an inch up the petiole stem.

Here's a post of some defoliating done recently.

New Mars Hydro TSL2000 run

Yes how much it cost inbox me I need detail I had all the components lying around. 6 extra CXB3070 COBs along with 3 more COBs and the 6 PCBs you can see, that came inside an EcoSunLite fixture. Also had the far red fixture from a long time ago I added to it. I hacked it, gave them all their...

Welll I didn’t fully defoliate as much as some do. I’m kind of nervous that I did this a little late into flower, but during vegetation I did defoliate multiple Times to make new bud sites grow and branch out. So they should be accustomed to it ? Wish me well ! Praying the lights penetrate deeper now and I have nice big chunky colas !!!

Yeah I wouldn't do much unless your rh spikes, then remove large fan leaves...... Make sure you have plenty of air circulation, rot/pm can decimate the crop.

Good luck

Just keep them healthy and watch your temps/humidity. Looking good though.

Thanks brother. My rh was actually MUCH higher before defoliation. In the 50’s . This morning when I went to turn the lights off, I noticed it was down to about 33 which is more around where I would like it right ?
