just a question

[tonyandgina]

i was just wondering, when it comes time to harvest, would it be possible to just cut the biggest most ripe buds, and let the smaller "popcorn" buds grow a little longer? its getting close, and i still have some smaller ones at the bottom of the plant. any info is greatly appreciated.

hey headshake, thanx man, i was hoping that would be possible, but i wasnt sure, this is my first harvest, and i wanna get as much bang for my buck as i can, hopefully, for as much money as i put into this growing op, i'll get as much $$ worth of product as i invested.:joint1:

no doubt tony/gina! i completely understand. you can also re-veg your plants after you chop them. just leave a few nubs with some growth on them and put back into 24/0 lighting and they should take off agian.

it's obviously a little more than that. check out rusty trichome's post on the subject matter.

I recommend it also, but you may need to be careful as to not stress it soo much to where it hermie on you! I do it myself, as everyone knows the top ripens faster than the bottom bud sites.
