i have to agree with jack harer on this...not only is there alot to learn about MJ, but theres a million and one ways to do it, you also need a lil bit of common sense. bigger things take more energy to move, or to even operate...this extends to plants and made made machinery alike...take a lawn mower, versus a dragster...bigger engine, more gas, produces more energy, and consumes just as much. ok, now plants...a bean grown 12/12 from seed ( 7 weeks flowering time) { i have grown this way and know} your looking at a small plant probably 18-24" tall at maturation. you can probably count on one hand the ammount of fan leaves on it...fan leaves are Mj's mini engines...store food, give food...not a whole lot of energy produced, and used to build the plants structure, and ultilmately buds. Now take this monster of a plant, and cut damn near all its leaves off, and this is what you get!!! a tall spindly, and extremely airy bud developed plant...not to mention a lack of calyx production. she just doesnt have enough energy to support proper bud production.
