SCROG Under the screen trimming

[DarthVader]

Hey everyone just put my screen up about a week ago im on week 5 of vegging and I was wondering if I should be trimming all the leaves and brances underneath the screen already or is it to early and will stunt plant growth any feedback is appreciated

Increasing yield with defoliation indoors - What's it mean? How to do it?

I like to clean up the bottom during veg, and I'll do it once more around week 1-2 of flower, just because its usually needed.

I do the majority in veg where they can handle the stress, without affecting things. During flower a light clean-up causes some stress, but nothing a b-vitamin can't help + it's so early it's hard to damage flowers at that stage.

Cool thanks guys, one more question do I cut off the little bud calyxes underneath the screen as well or should I leave those there
