3 photos in a throw together 50L tub DWC. How am I doing?

I’ve got 3 photoperiods that I flipped on the first few days of September. I put in a scrog net to spread the canopy, they’ve really started to fill out nicely and aive added another net to direct and flatten out the canopy.
Already pretty sticky and just about wall to wall coverage.

She’s pretty dense underneath, but has 2 fans down there for airflow and another blowing from above.
I did initially trim the bottoms up a little bit, but have just been taking the odd leave here and there when they start to look a bit old and shitty.. It’s hard to get under there to the back.

Do I need to remove some of the fan leaves between the two net levels to get a bit more light penetration?
I’ve got a Mars Hydro FC-4800 set at about 60% at the moment for the stretch. Or will it be fine and just bring the lights closer or turn them up?

I would say yes and for air flow also

Its going to be pretty hard for me to attack from the bottom, its super tight in that tiny little shed and my back is funked.. They’ve just gone lights off, so I’ll get what I can from the top in 12 hours I guess.

If you can’t get back there to trim the under growth, it’s ok. The plant will discard them for you after a long enough period of lack of production from those leaves. Just have a vacuum at hand ready to suck up the fallen leaves.

I should be able to just reach fallen leaves with great difficulty or an extension grabby thing, but selective pruning will be near impossible.
Should be fine as long as I clear a bit of breathing room down through the canopy though right?
