Is it time to defoliate?

[Cabbagelit]

I’m watching YouTube videos. And I see one of these guys cut the bottom leaves to increase production at the top of the plant. I just topped the my two leading stems that My first top created. That was about 5-6 days ago. What do you guys think? Should I get rid of these bottom leaves? And if so how much should
I cut

If it was me,I'd trim everything below the lower pipe cleaners..
And remove them 2 inner fan leafs on the first pic.

I’d probably pop off those two inner fans like genuity said. Where are you at in your cycle? If you’re in flower I would go for a defoil, if you’re still in veg I’d just let em chill a bit more.

Best of luck! They look great!

Nice! Ya in that case I would clean some fans off especially in the middle. Update us when you’re flowering

Stil in veg I'd leave the fan leaves but prune off any shoots that wont reach the top of the canopy.
I leave as many fans on as possible and only remove when they begin yellowing out. Family leaves provide photosynthesis and serve as a nutrient resevoir during flowering. Dont remove unless diseased.
