just wanting to know the facts i was told the less points on the leaves the more pure the strain is this true? i was told five points are the best. i have some plants that i know are good strains but there 9 points and 11 points not 5, big wide leaves the best i have grown in 15 years but buddy says there not pure because there not all 5 point leaves is he full of shit? can i tell him to :finger:

full of shit...the way it goes is usualy the garbage ganja is 5 to 7, i have violator with 13 and 15 blades.....basicaly the more blades the better the strain. thats a crack, your boy has it backwards.....white widow has 13, 15, 11 and 7 is white widow garbage ganja? no way.. the more the better

who said anything about potency. im talking quality of the ganja....in my experiance. ive grown bagseed , with 3, 5 ,7. every strain i have ever bought from a legit breeder have 3 first , then 5 then 7 then 9 then 13 . 13 has been the best strains ive grown.ended up 7,9,11,13. so you stick to the 3,5,7s bro and enjoy.....im just saying you are not going to find many high quality strains where the fans only have 5 blades. i may be wrong but i have yet to see the high quality strains with less than 7 toward the top......my best plant had 13 blades (white widow) very good shit...
im not claiming scietific proof im speaking from my experiance....
again. no one ever said anything about potentcy. and its not the trichs either , it IS the thc quantity of the strain that dictates potentcy or strength...weather its a 5 blade leaf or a 13 blade leaf...

Freekin' cool beans then, man cuz my plants have 11 leaves right now in week 3 of flower!!!!! Maybe I should clone them before its too late. No sign of bud yet but its more like week 2 and a half they have been in flower. I should clone anyway and if they turn out to be male, i'll execute the clones Mafia Style.......hahahaha.

My sensi star has 5 pointers all around, bout to enter week 8 of flower. Points on leaves have nothing to do with potency or "quality of the ganja" lol. Sounds like what I used to here when I was a kid before I started growing lol!!

i can back what just been said with pics here op if needed. ive grown ww many years.
balde numbers are effect by the typ of cannabis ie. indica.pure indica will have between 3 and 5 blades and will have really short nodes like 3 inch say. a pure sativa will have between 6 and 12 blades. nodes say 3 to 6 insh now an hybrid more indica dom can have like 3 5 7 9 11 and show more indica stlye leaf and a more sativa will 3 5 7 9 11 13. or there is ruderlis. but dont worrier about them
hope this helps with the myths

i forgot to add that say indica leafs will be short but wide sort of leaf that tend to have like patterns in the leaf it self. were sativa are very thin and long and imo have very pointy leafs and also ive never seen any patterns on them. but im not that exp with pure sativa

Sad news today as I found out the hard way by not sexing my plants that they were males. I thought that because they were growing nice and full and healthy that they would be super females but nope! That's why its important to sex them fast so you dont invest hope in them. So much for them having 11 and 12 leaf blades and all! Oh well. The seeds were free.
