Is it ok to cut shade leaves off to let plant flower better?

This is the epitome of a forum debate. I'm just sitting here with my popcorn watching the poop fly around.

My side, I only take the bullshit branches off down below. Larf is less than appreciated in my opinion.
Welcome to the thread. FUCK YOU!! Any sort of leaf removal is only done by retards! Might as well flush your plants while youre trimming them you NOOB.

Ok I came back here because I am reading a whole lot of judgmental holier than thou crap! First off the OP had no influence as to what I did with my Blueberry. That was solely my decision and I defoliated it before he posted. Secondly it's a friggin plant people! Some of you are making it out like I crucified Jesus himself! I grow as a fun hobby! I don't need cannabis but I am in a legal state and I enjoy growing a couple plants for fun and I like to experiment with growing styles! Should this defoliation experiment not work, *shrug* I don't care I have more seeds and can grow more plants! Ease up here people! 20170916_163000.jpg Above are both together. The one on the right is a sativa long, lean and lanky I did not touch it what so ever. They were both started from seed at the same time.20170922_144608.jpg Here is the Blueberry today! Actually it is doing well and the cola's are filling out more than the other plant I have not touched. I not only grow for the cannabis itself but for the aesthetics of the plant. Hence the pic of the flower below! It is taking on some gorgeous colors! 20170922_144550.jpg 20170922_144540.jpg

Next post down are the colas from the untouched plant. The Defoliated plant is filling out nicely and what with the planned sunny 70 * and 80* sunny weather for the next two weeks I expect more development.

By the way The Sativa is at day 47 of flower and The Blueberry is at day 38. The Blueberry was delayed about a week and a half behind before pistils started showing!

I am all organic no artificial nutes. Teas and now molasses every two weeks during flower and that is only for soil microbe nutrient!

Also however these two turn out they will be run for IWE hash.

See below post!

Cheers all

Ive got some nice healthy plants growing outside here in northern Maine, if i was to cut shade leaves ect. off the plant, will that help my buds get bigger/more THC?
Would not advise cutting "shade" leaves if you ever want to lay down under your plant and take a nap. Sun can be brutal on tired red eyes. Need all the shade I can get.
