Overcrowding?

The plants appear to be two to three weeks into flower, after the flip. Guide the branches to give each as much room to grow as possible. You may need to supercrop several branches to do so. You may want to remove some of the leaves to expose secondary branches to the light. Some of the smaller secondary branches may need to be removed.
For your next grow, start training and controlling the plants early in the vegetative stage. Depending on the size of the tent, and number of plants top and limit the number of main branches so that you have them at least 6" (15cm) apart. Popular methods include quad lining for four main branches, or NugBucket's Mainline or Manifold method for eight main branches per plant. In smaller tents where you can reach each plant without moving them, you can use a screen to guide the plants into the form you want them. In larger tents where you need to move the plants for maintenance, support and guidance must be provided from the pots. Here's my plan and the results for four mainlined plants in a 2' X 4' (60 X 120cm) tent:
The Plan: Four Plants, Eight Main Branches Each in a 2' X 4' (60 X 120cm) Tent
Adjustable Height Screen Installed

Note: The plants are not tied to this screen. It is used to guide their growth, and raised during the grow to provide support about mid way up the branches.

As @Old Salt says some leaf removal is in order here as well as almost certainly some branches. Personally I'd remove anything that is significantly shorter than the average plus some secondary branches that are filling up space between taller colas, and see what things look like then.

Not enough to worry about.

Just defoliate (or tuck back) a few fan leaves blocking primary budlets ...
