BigBeautifulWeedstarted grow question 5y 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

Bananas I’m into my 6th week of flower My caramel strain has started shooting off what I believe to be nanners. I noticed a few days ago and have been plucking them but am noticing more coming out. I’m sure I’ve missed some but m worried it may pollinate my other plant. Can it?

I noticed this on one of the leafs. It’s in its third week of veg. I’m not sure if it’s auto flower seed then it should be close. I noticed this on the leaf a reddish thing forming. This is my first grow so. Any insight or help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Mouldy, webbed buds The humidity was too high when I went away and now my buds are mouldy. Obviously I’m heart broken (mainly at my own stupidity because I should know better!) and I wondered if there was anything I can do to recover some of the crop. Can I wash? spray? Dry out…basically anything?!?

1st timer trichome questions The last question I posted had some solid answers. So big thanks. But everyone seemed to say the photo was of a sugar leaf, and not my bud. Do I need to remove a bud and break in half for a quality pic? Not sure what I’m doing wrong here, 1st timer. Looking down at bud here

When to snip?Can anyone hazard a guess at how long I have left from my poor quality photo? Day 50 of flower. (I'm not looking for too much amber, but I can't really tell what's cloudy and what's clear)

Finish them?I'm not relly sure what to do now. Some of the trichomes are clowdy, some clear, a few are ambercoloured. Cut it or leave it? Any suggestions were very helpful... :)

How much more time remaining on her?How much more time remaining on her? If you need to see more macro shots please check my week 11_day 77. The trichome stalks have started becoming purple 😈 . Too difficult to click a perfect macro shot due to heavy outdoor winds, so unable to distinguish between clear and milky.
