Good point......I’ve done things like this on a limited basis in the past and no issues came from it but it’s a new room, new lights, new everything basically. The biggest leaves have to go, that’s a given. But as you can see, these have a classic indica appearance and although there’s not a ton of leaves, what’s there are large.
I also used to trim clones back regularly and they did just fine as I used to have a 100% Survivor rate when I bothered with them.
Hi everyone, @sshz are the petioles of the fan leaves not long (and flexible) enough "to knit" them together 2 by 2? I was doing this in the past instead of doing some defoliation, and still doing it for squat indica's with big ass fan leaves like yours. It can be a bit of work for the first few days as the leaves will try to get back where they originally were (you can bind them together to avoid this), but it allows the light to go deeper to the lower branches without having to cut the fan leaves off.
I hope that makes sens.
Thanks!
