Defoliate or don’t?

So I’m new to the Autoflower , but I have a GG4 at 27 days old that I been LST . Do you think I need to cut a few leaves for light penetration or should I just let her go ? The leaves look a lil droopy but I did water 2 days ago , maybe that’s why idk . She seems like she is doing good so far without but idk that’s why I’m asking . I think she’s gonna be a bush !!!

Being an auto I’d be leery of removing much plant material. Remember the leaves produce the sugars needed to properly flower out your plant. If you do defoliate I’d wait until about plus three weeks into flower.

That was my worry , I have heard of growers doing it . I think I will just leave her alone and keep good airflow to her and tucking leaves .

I think that’s a solid plan.
