What does finish sooner mean???
More ambers, receded pistils, swollen bracts????
1) More ambers...OK...so harvest plants the same day... dry, cure, and trim. Then lab test. Compare final weight(accumulation of biomass over time) and also compare THCa : THC∆9 : CBN. If it did finish sooner it should have more chemical degradation. Or is ripper will have higher values from being peak content.
2) Receded pistils- pics of comparison buds on same days from similar flower location. Comparative pistil length.
3) Swollen Bracts- pics of bracts on same days from similar flower location. Calibrator for diameter measurements.
