Looks like bud rot, get your humidity down to 40%. If your hydrometer says 40%, get a new one.

Clear or Cloudy?
I managed to get a Jeweler’s Loupe and I tried to take a picture with the iPhone. Do you think the trichomes are all cloudy enough? I was in doubt before buying the loupe because the pistils are still nearly 30%/40% brown. I also found very few brown trichomes, about 1-2% total

How to force open closed calyx's
I've noticed at times on some of my grows that some calyx's remain closed when others calyx's surrounding are open. How to induce close calyx's to open that remained closed? I've waited before until all have calyx's opened, but it was taking me into overripe. Will they ever open?

Is this plant a boy?
So two of my plants have flowered, however a third seems somewhat shorter and doesn't seem to have Pistil. Is this plant not yet flowering, is it male, or is something else going in here. Looks healthy other than that.

Reveg/Budding issue
What is my plant doing? the days are almost 15 hours long so I don't understand why it's budding still, I expected it to reveg by now but no sign of rounded single leaves still. The days are getting longer not shorter, end of next month is when the days start getting shorter.

Let's say stigmas are showing. these plants are femenized but I do not know if they are photo or auto. I specifically bought the seeds as auto but the source isn't as credible so I'm not sure. I will continue the growth with 18h light for the next week.can I determine after that

Clear or cloudy?
How are these trics? I have an inexperienced eye so I wanted to ask others. Weather is turning cold 12'C day and 8'C night. It's also raining a lot. Plants are on the balcony covered with a plastic sheet. Should I keep waiting? I'm near week 13 on what should be a 8 week grow.

How to get feminised plants to flower
How do I get my feminised plants to start flowering outside / greenhouse? I'm a bit of a newbie to growing my own and thought I'd brought Autoflowers but I've realised that they're not. They are very big now (White Widow) and not started flowering like my others did.

Trichomes evaluation
Hello, in the last page of my diary (20), I uploaded some photos of Trichomes that I took with microscope. I believe that they are not ready for my usage (insomnia is my condition) and that I should wait until they are some milky and some amber. Can someone confirm my intuition?

Fox tail?
Is this anything to worry about? Looks like my buds are fox tailing. They are in the harvest window. Just wanted a bit more of a flush. Medusa F1 will be 70 days old tomorrow. It’s not all the buds but some. I have never had this happen before and I think it’s down to the cold.
