White Bud Tops
Edeplantstarted grow question 4 years ago
Painkiller F36. The upper colas' tops turned white (don't mean the hairs, it's clean white bud parts). I heard this happens when some strains get to close to the light. I don't mind it, but is there any downside to this and do these white parts stay white during drying?

“We’ve had white tips analyzed separately from the green part of the same bud and found they have higher [concentrations of] THC and much higher terpenes than the rest of the plant,”
“We were shocked at the ‘white tips’ on our first crop,” said Gress. “We Googled and read that this was damaged, bleached, or burned bud. But they looked so healthy that we didn’t believe it.”

I have this with my first grow also with new Cobs on my Sugar Gom Automatic. I smoke this but i cannot say now how strong was the effect. You dont must cut this from Plant when you have this.

Light bleaching, very common with LED lighting when plants get to close the light is so intense but with almost no heat it results in this, other lighting like HID would just burn the crap out of the plant tops. Light bleaching looks cool but the bud are useless.

Those hairs are growing inside the calyxes, when calyxes fat enough they might explode and show those white hair explosions late during bloom.
Heat or light stress might do that, also cutting or topping a tiny bit of the bud will trigger that.
In no way that's lower potency, but you might need to keep the plant flowering a couple of weeks more because those pistils aren't mature.
Happy smokes!

Hello. That is burnt plant material and won't turn back to green. If it got so hot to burn the plant, you melted all the thc crystals around that area. If it bothers you , you can cut it of at harvest time. Good Luck. Chuck.

Buds that have been bleached tend to be low potency or even have no potency (no available THC or other cannabinoids). It will change once it's dry but you will be able to tell the difference in appearance from a normal bud. Hopefully I answered your question and remember Happy Growing and Free your mind one puff at a time.

How to reduce yield? (without reducing quality)Can I prune down to 3 or 4 colas? When? Or better to let it grow normally and compost the extra? I've found it too easy to grow way more than I can use. Especially when I experiment with different varieties. I'm also thinking it might be easier to spot pests etc. with less colas?Buds. Other

Pre-harvest CareMy question is related to harvest techniques. I have seen where several diaries talk about water restrictions the last 1-2 days prior to harvest and also about placing the plant(s) in the dark for 4-7 days prior to harvest. I would like to hear from the master growers on it. TYBuds. Other

Suintement / gouttelettesJ'aimerais recueillir vos avis concernant le suintement observé sur mon plant de cannabis, qui a été placé dans l'obscurité totale au cours des dernières heures. Une substance sucrée semble s'écouler sous forme de petites gouttelettes. Dois je n'inquiéter pour le séchage ?

My Girl's Gone Rogue with 10cm of Frosty Goodness!My lady decided to shatter the whole "week 10 harvest" and instead shoot 10cm, packing new flowers whiter than a yeti's behind in a blizzard!
This genetic curveball beats me.
Do I let her keep this frosty stretch, or do I harvest and let this mutant masterpiece become a solo act

Small bud and faint smellHi everyone!
I am concerned that my buds have a very faint odor (you have to almost touch the plant with your nose to smell it well).
Could it be because I have a powerful fan? Or will the herb take on an odor over time or after drying?
