What is causing the buds to corkscrew?
Valmont505
started grow question 6y ago
1st time grower, curious as to why the bud is forming like this. Is it genetics or me moving the plant to much? The buds on this plant are just not as uniform as the 2nd plant.

It should fill out. Looks like plain old genetics, but they should finish nicely.

She's close to harvest and I am wondering how much grams she will yield..as you can see in the pics she's really tall (130cm) and full of buds, I already started to flush her and I've been giving her 275W of light with a 19-5 schedule. Thank you in advance :)

Calyx and trichome development
So just a general question I guess. Anybody ever had just the lower calyxes on your flowers swell and form more trichome where as the top half of the bud that receives the most light doesn't? I think it has a lot to due with sub tropical heat and humidity

White pistils close to harvest
Hello growers! Thanks for your help. So I'm approaching harvest (yellowing leaves, mostly milky trichomes, fat buds) but many pistils are still white. Flowering is supposedly 7-9weeks, I just entered week 9. Waiting for more amber trichomes, should I wait to have orange pistils?

Male flowers?
My Apple Fritter plants are in their fourth week of flowering. Today, while watering, I found something on the soil that looks like a fallen male flower. Is my assumption correct? I examined the plant thoroughly and found no further male flowers.

No microscope => Need your expert eyes :D
I'll have a microscope next week. But since i got a "not too bad" macro photo with my phone, could you share your opinion with me? I believe Trichomes are at the "cloudy" stage, am i right ? At what stage should I stop feeding? (the flush) (First grow ever) Thanks !! 😍
