Hey growmies
when I switch to flower i keep training the plant either by tucking under the trellis net or with bud clips, thru the stretch period, maybe 2 or 3 weeks. But what about removing leafs? Is that to stressful for the plant? And best to wait till after the stretch is finished?

I would defoliate to maintain good airflow…not too stressful if you do not go overboard.

I have just noticed that if you have a branch with two small potential budsites, and you cut the one leaf and let the other one stay. Then the one you don’t cut the leaf of, grows bigger and better
and that is in veg

1-4 leaves a day isn’t going to stress your ladies too much, if you do more than that you may want to wait a few days for them to recover. After they start to flower so long as your bud sites get light and you aren’t worrying about mold then let them be I would say.
