Im hearing ya bro, take out some leaves, dying ones, yellowing ones, ones that are twisted or really light green & especially the older lower fan leaves, if bud stalks are too close to the main stem, get some garden sticks and 'lever' the buds away from the main stalk, to create gaps in between. Be carfeul you don't snap them from the main stem tho, if you do, use a breathable , waterproof, sticky plaster to stick it back with.
