Hi! I’m in the middle of the flowering phase of my royal gorilla, I see a lot of leaves and I was wandering, is it right to cut some leaves so that there aren’t flowers or leaves in the shadows or it could be damaging for the final results? Thank you

Sounds reasonable.

Most experienced growers pull leaves. The ones that don't are organic leaning, or haven't done proper testing.

I do it slowly with only a leaf off at a time. Don't do a major trim job on one day during flowering or it may mess things up.

There’s an art to it, and it’s best to wait til around day 18 or so in bloom.
And as mentioned, do not go crazy at once.
You can repeat this late in flower too

Gently massage them and if she says no then it means NO
