Editor notes

Not ideal when

  • The crop base value is too low to justify the extra chase time
  • You need stable short-session returns more than peak upside
  • A simpler mutation already solves the same job with less variance

Editor notes

Chase when

  • You already have a strong crop base
  • You are comfortable with variance
  • The route can absorb a slower setup

Editor notes

Skip when
