Yeah that does help. Also removing most of the large upper leaves just a few days before you plan to harvest. It lets light through plus the plant may think it's being grazed on and react by putting out more THC to stupefy them next time. Just a theory but mine came out quite potent when I did it. Just more light penetration alone makes it worth doing though. I don't think they even need the large leaves at that point. They seem to naturally yellow even when well fertilized, so might as well help the plant get rid of them.I think ill go for 10 max.
Thinking about staggerd chopping as well..
Any inpout maybe,if you have ever chopped the upper colas first then leave the rest to mature alittle more?
Looks like an Indica dom pheno. That could be the one. A lot of them tend to be stretchy like Sativas.As much as I would pick another BG strain, I'm already balls deep into BB. Let's hope I'm lucky ey?View attachment 3690196
You do have to be lucky to find a really good one. I'm sure there's plenty of better BG crosses around. This doesn't even smell like BG really when dried, kind of when fresh though. I wouldn't recommend this strain over other BG crosses, it's just something people might want to try on the side. You CAN get good phenos, just that it's probably going to take a good number of seeds to find one.

Cannabis doesn't naturally select for heavy buds. It wants to produce seeds using as little energy as possible with stretchy fluff buds. Heavy buds get moldy too easily so they don't live to reproduce. It does put out the odd heavy pheno though, so we have to do the work of finding them.Completly true Bob,
Between each 10 seeds from each seed bank only 1 or 2 is nice and the rest is not that good and very stretchy.
Seems to be an indica dom from everything I have read about it.Nice looking plant. Not too stretchy for a Sativa dom.
