On the suggestion of someone who calls this a "ridiculous claim" and "utter nonsense"
I am going to try and get the opinions of "more experienced growers" on the possible benefits of forcing, in some aspect or another, stress upon your plants in the final days before harvest, this will allegedly cause the plant to increase in size and trichome production by some fraction or another, as the plant is desperately seeking pollen before it dies. You don't necessarily have to prick the stem with thumbtacks, you could leave them in the dark the last 72 to 48 hours, or water them with chilled water, even shake the pots an rough them up a tad. Obviously you wouldn't want them to go hermie,
so striking the right balance would be necessary. I am not saying that Ive done this, or that it works and its the bees fucking knees. I am simply saying it doesn't seem to me to be utter nonsense, and while would want to argue to the death over this without even the slightest drop of evidence to support their contradictions of me, I have at least provided the BARE MINIMUM of evidence to support my "claim"
I am not seeking argument only truth so please anyone with personal experiences or external links to info on this comment! I have already done all the research I'm willing to do and soon I will attempt this myself but until then...
