"You'll get good scapes and buds if your plants get plenty of water when the scapes are forming."
"The scapes potentially start forming months before bloom, even the previous year." Not sure exactly what "potentially" means here.
I would love to know more about the scapes forming this far in advance. I always assumed the scapes formed fairly quickly and that the blooms followed a few weeks later. So maybe it is true that you will get good scapes if your plants get plenty of water when the scapes are forming, that just maybe months before we are normally thinking?
What are the scapes doing during that long of a delay, what are the stages of a developing scape?
