Going Old School for a “Double Harvest” aka Ed Rosenthal

[MikeParent]

We harvested the top 8-10 inches of buds but left the remainder to continue flowering.
We did this in the seventies as lights didn’t penetrate into the canopy.
We now have a prolific and bountiful harvest hanging and another waiting for another 2-3 weeks to dense up. I usually don’t weigh the harvests but I’ll weigh this second harvest.
Before and After the first harvest.

I've heard this technique before, but I've never actually seen it in action. Please let me know how everything goes I'd love to know more about it.

Oops, the After pic is first. It has the cut stalks.

You’ll know when I do.
We did this all the time under fluorescents with good results but LEDs are a whole new ballgame.
I’m hoping the Second Harvest adds 60% to the first cut.

Let me know how that goes... I would much rather do that then have a lot of fluff on bottom. Goodluck
