Crabbyback I really haven't come to any conclusion, in fact after reading your advice I figure it can't hurt to try one more time. I'm going to try harvesting the way you do, but I'm wondering if maybe I should do this last grow in soil. Also I think I'll try Loc Nars advice and try growing Big Bud. The more advice I try, the better chance I have for fixing the problem. I don't grow in the summer, it's too hot so my next try will start at the end of Sept. I'll post again and let you know how I make out. Thank you again for the advice.
