BigBeautifulWeed
started grow question 6y ago
A low thc % can cause less amber thricomes? She ripened completely days ago but no amber yet, quick one is low on thc, could be that?

Time to harvest... amber tricomes is the thc breaking down. If you're worried about low thc, amber tricomes will only make it worse. All cloudy is the right stuff. Too much amber gives a lethargic effect. Even on a sativa

Brown Spots On The Buds
Should I remove the brown spots on the Buds? What are they? (Maybe from overfeeding?)

Pistilos blancos tricomas marrones
Las plantas se encuentran en la semana número 6 de floración. Una de ellas tiene aún todos los pistilos blancos pero al mirar con microscopio los tricomas ya se empiezan a ver marrones la mitad de ellos. Es momento para cosechar? Ya les he hecho lavado de raíces

White/green thing appearing in middle of bud?
Buds are getting close to harvest. Just noticed a white thing right in the middle of one of the buds. Any idea what it is? It seems hard to the touch. Is it part of the plant/stem? Is it a seed? (do autos even make seeds?) Is it rot/something from a bug? Thanks!

Harvest time delayed ? (had ph problems)
Same seeds, same procedures (taller one has less soil due to mistake in beginning), very different results. Flush em? Harvest the smaller one? Its white hairs are pretty much brown, but not much ice there. The taller one has much more ice, but the white hairs are mainly white

Should I prune small branches with small bud?
Should I cut off these small branches (growing horizontally to the left) with bud growing on them? Would pruning small branches be detrimental to the plant this late into growth? Are these small branches pulling that much energy/nutrients that could go to the main buds instead?

Can I still use the buds on my hermied plant to make edibles instead of tossing it away? (2-3 weeks into flower)
Hi! One of my plants hermied about 2-3 weeks into flower, could the buds still be used to make edibles or won't it have any effect?

Trichomes
They all look milky to me but id like a second opinion. I don't want to cut it early. This is my first time at this so I really am not sure what I'm looking for and if its not. Its a white widow auto if thats in anyway helpful. I couldn't really get good pictures sorry about that

These have been grown in 91 degree heat for their entire time growing. I can't change that the heat killed off some trichomes. But what is your opinion on the doneness of the trichomes that are there? If the pics are not clear enough I can use my real camera versus my phone. THX

When do I see trichomes?
Am I supposed to be seeing trichomes at this stage? Worried that me overloading with nitrogen in earlier weeks has prevented this? Giving just bio bloom at half dose recommended by bio Biz schedule and top max once a week and watering every other day in between
