Share your experience and insights here if you’ve noticed a link between speed of growth and potency. With potency I mean terpene profile more so than THC.
I’ve had a critical cheese auto that grew stupid fast but I was disappointed with the potency, the effect didn’t last as long and I built up tolerance faster. It was also more “heady”. My slower growing plants seem to have a more intense body high.
This is just a vague suspicion I have, a lot of this is very subjective ofcourse, apart from terpene profiles. It would be interesting to see studies done that compare terpene profiles of fast and slow growing plants, grouped according to strains and grow methods. So much more research to be done…
