Yes you just want to remove a bit from the inside the rule I use is if sunlight can't get to it it's not useful. All fan leaves pointing inwards are useless.

Should I defoliate my 7-week old autoflower It’s very bushy and some bud sites are covered with leaves. I’ve been tucking those leaves to improve light coverage but I’m not sure if this is enough.
