I don't worry to much about undergrowth or trimming till I'm in flower about 3 weeks. I do remove some leaf and grow sparingly till that point then I clean it out.
In veg ya got plant matter growing all over as ya try to guide them with training. Giving that growth below the chance to rise up will add to your harvest. Is it all going to contribute...no. Some material needs removed for airflow. Leaf can clog up things. Going slow with trimming in veg is okay. To me it really counts when the plant is set and ready for flower. Get in there and clean all growth from below. Give them buds new life and air flow.
Most importantly to me is getting all I can get from a plant. If I remove stuff to early I'm not letting her show me all she has to offer.
That floater scrog I'm using is a very good tool to spread plants without the need for ties. I'm posting some pics in my thread later of the Tangie in a floater. She's coming along so nice and well shaped.

Yeah I guess it's a question of defolitaing as much as nessesary for you, but also as little as you can get away with.
I don't think there's any 'one size fits all' with this, as there's too much variation between different peoples environments and growing techniques.

Exactly what ive been shooting for, keeping things tidy and doing my best to prevent a breeding ground for anything uninvited. My space is so small it is absolute I utilize every inch and branch.
Also nothing is getting ran twice until everything gets a shot! No redeux! I have the next 4 runs planned. I'm getting my propagation gear together now. Get everything dialed in to where I'm only training out my flower tent and flip.
These will be going under a trellis. I fucked up my training this round. I also have a feeling these are gonna be HEAVY! Tomorrow or Wednesday I'll have it updated.

Day 54
Your kids wasn't lying about monsters in the closet! Just not thiers lmao! These girls continue to impress me with there growth. Transplanted into 5gal fabric pots and within hours I can see them perk up. I think they sensed the change coming. 50/50 flower girl/veg, no all purpose. The BOO is loving life and has boosted in the last week, Big Bertha still the one to beat. Also made a scrog net(cotton) because I don't care for nylon/polyester blend, looking for alternative material still. Watered them in with BMC and yucca. Let's see if we can make it to September 1st for the flip.

1st net for training.
