If the grower is experienced enough to keep the metabolism of the plant in right levels so the plant doesnt abuse food but just takes what it needs, you can have incredible results. Ive seen ENORMOUS colas in some outdoor sativas, dripping with resin. A guy i knew used to harvest more than a kilo of incredibly dank bud from each of his 3-meter-tall monsters. But i have also seen badly grown sativas with spindly buds and burnt leaves fighting to stay alive due to fert abuse. So i believe is up to the grower to grow a helthy dank sativa. Which is not very easy and needs experience.

Your right on that one - i've seen people try to grow sativas - in veg they looked fine - in flower they got about half oz of the leafiest stingyest bud i've ever seen.

Yes, it's the CBN CBD and CBG which give the couchlock, THC is the up high.

BUt even a sativa can have high levels of CBN and CBD, CBG - all you've got to do is leave it flowering longer and the THC will drop and change into CBD and CBN.

I agree, sativas can be very strong - but have to been grown with experience.

Indicas are easier to grow with an almost guarenteed good harvest and good amount of resin production.
