Top colas on a CBD plant ripen a week or more ahead of the shaded lower buds, and cutting everything at once means either an overripe top or an immature bottom. Taking the upper third first and letting the rest fill out under the newly exposed light is a simple fix that adds real weight. The staged harvest approach is walked through on https://calmcbdseeds.com with a note on how it shifts the CBD readings between the two cuts. It does mean two drying sessions, which is the only downside.
