I've been wondering about that. I don't recall anybody ever really talking about it but it makes sense. I'm going to try that....i would cut the top nugs for u get 2 harvests, and the 2nd harvest thoese small buds will be huge in about a month i usually get just as much and my 1st harvest on my second harvest
on my tree i am going to harvest the buds serparatly, when the last bud is off i dig the roots out of the ground with the stalk wash the roots dry them all -- then grnd them all down to make my hash with.
