I aim for quality over quantity but i understand that sometimes growers go for amount over quality if its for retail ,the streets ,but even more so there is no reason ,why the bud should not be good both ways amount and the finished product,most is just under done that i see in deals.
They don't get that the bud if left a bit longer the final 2 week are the best for getting good product and in my view the most important.Min 9 week,no matter what the strain,its during weks 7/8/9 that the plants gain the weight so they are not really gaining anything,because if left it would be a far better weight over all,and far better quality,i see a lot of stuff that has only just started to crown.
big bud ,over drive, pk 13/14, all these will help the plant fatten and crown faster.But i just use pk 13/14 at week 6 of flowering for a week instead of just the one tank has rec,by canna. Another good tip is i use a auto pot set up but when i add my pk spikes i all ways pour it through the coco,has well has haveing it sent to the root base via the tank.
I was told to do this by a grower that has been doing this stuff since the 70''s and it defo makes a difference to the end result,
