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.

Hermie :'( please read do you think I will be okay ?
I have had a few seed pods open and release pollen in the tent. the pistils are still very white coming into the 6th week of flower on the other plants. I have removed the offending plant and drenched the tent in water. Do you think they will be okay or seeded only 3 weeks left ?

Buds below canopy
What should be done about those buds that haven't grown high enough? They are there right under or above the net. Leave them to grow or remove them completely?

Using Silica to prevent foxtails???
Yo growmies!!!.. So, not sure why I always do this.. But I have only been using Silica in veg.. I have been stopping before flower.. Lately my ladies have been foxtailing like fucking crazy.. Would using Silica in flower help to prevent the foxtailing since I can't control heat??

CAN I SALVAGE MY BROWN MOLD HARVEST WITH RESIN PRESS? OR DO YOU ABSOLUTLEY NEED TO GO WITH ALCOHOL?
Help, Brown Mold on buds. Good amount. Hate to throw it away. Put it all in freezer after harvest and discovery of mold. IS SMOKING MOLDY WEED REALLY DANGEROUS? and Is there any other way to salvage besides using alcohol? Is it safe to press the resin out with resin press? Thanks

Possible sacs? Pineapple Express Fem Help ASAP
Trying to figure out if she started making pollen sacs or if that’s just how pineapple genetics are. Seen someone else with the same problem but I’m not too sure still. Seen something called “bolting” but not sure if this is it. Tried catching a couple different sites

Bloom o bloom/veg insieme
Hei ragazzi secondo voi con una lampada a led nella fase di fioritura è meglio usare solo l'interruttore BLOOM o sarebbe meglio BLOOM/VEG insieme? Come rispondono meglio le piante? Grazie in anticipo!!

Budrot in small area
Hey guys one of my outdoor plants a few weeks shy of harvest developed but rot on a small area at the bottom of the plant. Do I have to discard the whole plant or can I just get rid of the affected area and harvest the rest before the rest of the plant is infected?
