"you ever get a bag of some top flight shit and find a seed or two in it? did the potency or quality suffer?"

ya that sort of popped into my head earlier. So then it might be a fair statement to say that at the point of pollination, the plant should stop producing resin and flowers, which would lead me to think that one might want to stop growing at that point. However I dont know how this would effect the present trichs and if there is a curing process that goes on while the plant is still alive. The crystals turn amber, so is that because they are degrading or because they are changing? I'm too confused...breeding was never something I was all that interested in. Maybe in another year or two. LOL

I must have pollinated early then because my plants never did produce all that much resin or THC. I was sorely unhappy with my first grow.
