Sometimes a few have to be sacrificed for the good of the others if there's not enough 'necessities' for all. I think most would believe that as many that could be efficiently handled for the optimum potency/yield is the way to go, instead of having all of them just being sort of half assed. Although I don't believe potency has anything to do with flower size. When they're matured to the correct point in their life they're good. Makes no difference if they're small or large. Just less yield. At least that's what I think. But I'm just a rookie.
