Ive ben growing a bagseed sativa that i really like but i let it grow like 9 colas and defoliated a lot to keep it under control. however it didnt grow too fat. i think it was mostly due to the fact i had too many colas and cut the fan leaves off the main stalk for most of those colas. so my question is what if i prune most of the cola stems off my next grow but leave their main stalk fan leaves. will they help their non-associated cola sites fatten up or do they only help the colas that grow off the top of them? my idea was to have like 1 or 2 main colas and only a few mini 1-2 inch offshoots and hopefully get fatter buds from what grows.
i know another thing that affected my grow was i was relying on ffof soil nutes and didnt use enough addative nutes to help so i was going to use the technaflora recipe at start of flower this time with some recycled ffof soil that should basically be clean of the builtin organic nutes.
btw im growing in a supercloset superbox. they can grow to almost 2 feet tall and using a feliz 2700k 10,000 lumen 200w cfl. i have gotten before 2x 1/2 oz indica hybrids and a late finisher sativa giving 2 oz and taking over the entire box that had like 15 colas growing out of control on my very first grow but moved halfway across the country and now im growing new strains.
with this sativa im pretty sure its a landrace mexican sativa. it smells piney and finished in 8 weeks which i thought was odd for a sativa but now that i know this i want to keep it for now
