Staged harvesting suits sativa plants because the top colas ripen well ahead of the shaded lower buds. Taking the tops first and giving the rest another week or two under the light lets the lower flowers fill out instead of being harvested immature. The technique is described on https://hazesativaseeds.com alongside a note on which lines benefit most, mainly the tall equatorial types with a big height difference between top and bottom. It adds a bit of work but the lower buds end up noticeably better than they would otherwise.
