Yeah I don't think pushing them mean any less quality.. faster growth does not mean lesser quality and have seen no evidence. Better conditions allow for my light and more growth. Stress is stress. I mean if I put them in cool conditions and it slows growth does that mean better quality? Personally I don't think so. Pushing the plants to reach faster growth rates while keeping them from stresses imo makes for faster growth and better quality. The thing is you can't push them hard if you don't dial the environment in to where the plantnl is not stressed. It's the same with all life. Provide better environment for bacteria and they thrive and populate much fast and healthier. I don't see the correlation about growth rates equal lesser quality. Maybe it's the term pushing them hard you mean? By pushing them hard I mean maximizing the potential growth while reducing the stress.
So in essence yes that what I mean by pushing them hard... Finding the sweet spot where they can maximize the light, nutrients and reward me with vigorous, healthy and sizable growth
Im not explaining my thought right.
Im saying unless you try to do it that well the first time you may not have picked the best plants.
It is much harder to maintain quality under maxed out conditions and i have yet to smoke any weed grown at extreme tates that was very good.
But that is not to say your product is that way. I was just saying that there is a point where you can push and fade plants to quite high yield while reducing quality. Typical commercial grow is an example. You can obviously have high thc and shitty pot. I think the complexity comes from keeping the plant healthy longer. Not signaling faster flowering and not tiring it out with too much light.
