Please Don't.
they have a big job in the plants growth.
just tuck them if they are in the way, but they are not really in the way....

De leafer ...? to my blog: https://www.rollitup.org/blogs/blog33046-de-leaf-not.html also avoid allowing wet plants to sit...it may make mold, have a small fan on them to avoid molds

A good question, general rule is no Spraying of Nutes during flowering.
moisture is your enemy in flower it grows Mold.

I foliar feed my veg 2x monthly.
1/4 strength mix of grow big and big bloom.
My RH is already high in my flowering tent so I would never spray the Flowering plant.
RH is high in general were I live.

I ....Do??? ...Oh yes...I have never seen so many guys for and against de-leafing/defoliating before...common sense rules if in doubt follow the brains, I follow Clarke, and his graduating thesis on Mar Jane botany, he later packed it as a book, not for the noobie...but eventually should be in everyones collection ..?
