Orange spots on buds
I'm growing Quarter Pounder Auto by Canuk Seeds. The buds have large orange spots where trichomes are 100% amber the majority of the bud is just cloudy. Has anyone seen this before? Should I harvest now? Notice how the sugar leaves curl in with gobs of trichomes.

Are these male Pollen Sacs forming, or just damaged calyx?
Autoflower 2 weeks from chop. Plant fell over 2 days ago - perhaps this calyx came in contact with the floor and removed the 'skin' of the calyx? Is she starting to herm? Are these Nanners/ Male Pollen Sacs in the centre of the picture (bright green)? Or are they damaged calyx?

Potential bud rot?
My critical cure has some of the smaller leaves near and in the buds which are starting to turn rusty brown. Is this a starting sign of bud rot? Should I cut them early? I do not see anything abnormal under the microscope or when separating the large buds by hand. Thanks!

Fruit Punch Autoflower on Day 43??
This Fruit Punch auto on day 43 and not flowering like all the rest. I don't have another space to switch to 12/12. Have you seen autos go this late? I don't want to scrap this beautiful plant if she still may flower at 18/6 but don't want to take up room if it needs flipped.
