from what ive read, the fan leaves are what "absorb" the light, so if whoever is growing the bud was to put up some kind of shield or something over their buds so that way the buds didnt recieve light but the fan leaves still would, therefor the plant would still be absorbing light and producing bud matter, if that would help it become more potent? just an idea, ill appreciate all the feedback

does anyone know wether exposure to light while the buds are still growing degrades it or not? because if so i think this theory could work, i know its a little far fetched, but its been in my brain for a few weeks now!

I don't know how light and air degrade THCA though, as that's what is on the buds until they're cured
