In all honestly I think my tall plants with the smaller buds have been more potent than my shorter plants that have had larger buds. I think my taller plants have been more sativa dom or something. Like my berry ryder what ever blue berry plant they used it was sativia dom for sure. It was not the typical indica blue berry I would expect. If my plant puts on smaller rounder buds than usually there stronger and more covered in tricomes. Its like my plants are either tall, low yield and super high quality or bushy, decent and high yield. I had a plant sativa dom plant once called shot adrenaline. It was in a closet in my room on the far end of my house and before it started to flower I would smell it all the way to my front door. I would not say I like the short or tall plants but more the sativa or indica dom plants. I like the ease and yield of the indica but the complex smell, and tricome production of the sativa.
