9@Critical+ 2.0-1000w HPS - 1.5p Harvest

I managed to process all 9 plants and with in minutes of handling the second pheno, which I thought was my higher yielding pheno, that this version was actually much less dense bud structure. I never noticed because I try to never touch plants in flower Because it seems to cause damage to the buds. Anyways I track each pot on take down and after weighing the first plant I could now see in numbers that my hunch was true.  Even though these plants looked as good, if not more healthy then the last batch, with more tops and fairly even canopy, and great cola spacing, they still produced less. Keep in mind the other pheno was approx 4110g wet. This grow was only 3383g. Its very discouraging but I'll wait until final dry numbers for weigh in and if they agree, I'll be getting rid of the other pheno. I did have one more seed, of critical 2.0,so I can see what that one does also. Update: added bud shots Jan 8
