Defoliation advice needed

[SuBlimE420]

Just curious about how much I should trim away, looking for some advice there's a decent amount of lard being covered

3x3 tent
400w hps
Week 3 flower clones

Thanks!

As few as you feel need to go. I leaf trim for ventilation purposes, leaves grow flowers
It is way easier to overdue it than to underdue

Tons of stuff on the interwebs... but here are some videos that might give you some direction. You'll learn by trying and gaining experience. Best of luck.

Defoliation has served me well. I have even aggressively defoliated from seed just to see what would happen.
The key for a newbie like you and me is.. from my experience give it at least 3 weeks from seed... and do it in spurts, always seeing a nice strong bounceback from the previous time.
