What is causing the buds to corkscrew?
Valmont505started 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.

First harvestWelcome to the members. It will be my first harvest. How much time do you think you have left? I asked this question a week ago, but the flowers swelled up a lot in a week. Can you leave 2 more weeks? In such a case, should I start washing with only clean water with a pH?Buds. Other

My harvested weed smells amazing, but tastes horrible. I'd say a bad chemical-like after taste. I thought it was due to poor flushing, but I flushed the 2nd plant for over 2 weeks and the 1st plant for 1 week. Not sure what caused this... Overfertilization? Something else?Week 15

What are these white hairs near the flower?Please see the attached picture. What are these white hairs to the left of the flower?
I don't see this anywhere else on this plant, with the exception of one fine strand elsewhere.
I do have a dog with some white fur but this doesn't look like his hair at all.4y ago

How to tell when buds are dry and it's time to start curing?When drying how do you tell when it's time to start curing, ik from what I've read says the stem needs to snap, the outside of some of the buds feel dry but the stem isn't snapping it bends like it is almost going to snap. Is it safe to start curing? Been drying for 4-5 day's.Buds. Other

Bract/calyx turning brownHey fellow growmies,
i noticed brown bract/calyxes on one of my plants. (week 12, auto, 20 % amber)
Iwasnt't worried until I found them inside of some buds while checking for budrot.
Should I be concernend (cut the buds), or is this just the circle of the plant life or genetics?Buds. Other
