Massive budding

Very interesting dilemma, FTB!

My inexperienced guess, is that with all of that energy required from the plant, you are going to get stunted pods, but either way, I'd be concerned about tearing boughs. Lots of pruning or lots of tying up in your future, m'thinks...! ;)
 
I think it would be worth a group of stunted pods on one plant to see the results thru to the end. This is interesting.
 
Yeah, I'm gonna leave it alone and see what happens. I have more bonnets than I can eat so I'm not concerned.

How is your season going Rick?
