Looking good but it does appear to be getting a little crowded in there. I'm not a big fan of defoliation, so I would try tucking leaves before I removed them.
+1 for the space.
In my opinion, don't do anything until 35/40 days of flowering and then, start to remove the biggest leaves. Day by day. One by One.
I'm totally impressed with people who grow in such small space. You are doing a great job ! It looks healthy and now, the stretch will be not a problem anymore so, enjoy the last days
