So everywhere it seems to be held as accepted that budsites themselves need light. Everywhere you hear stuff like "it makes for dense nugs" or " remove leaves so bud gets more light" ..it seems to have circumstantial evidence so to speak.
What got me to thinking was the defoliation(removing fan leaves) thread. Then I wondered was it the light not being blocked that helped, or that the plant had more resources that it didn't need to 'waste' on the leaves.
Is there science behind this? Links?
I know I am in for some flaming, as you get when questioning opinions held dear on the internet .... I am not disagreeing, or even saying I don't believe, just want to know for sure, and if so, why
Tl;Dr how/why does bud itself profit from direct light
