Spraying anything on it? Some IPM stuff causes pistils to brown prematurely

Its a sign that your buds are starting to mature. You are getting to the final stage just before harvest.

What happens is as the buds mature the pistils turn brown or orange, usually when 80% of the hairs have turned colour is a good indicator that its nearly ready. Yours are some way off.

Nitrogen overfed on flowering stageHi
My grow seems to go deeper into nitrogen overfeed that I cant do much about, the soil i bought seems to be PACKED with it. Flushed a couple of times, and no result. I get leaves, not buds.
I’m on the 8th week.
Can i still save the grow and try to re-pot in neutral soil?Buds. Not fattening

Slow bud formation and development on healthy growing plantIn day 32 of flowering and getting worried about the lack of bud development (see last photo on week 12). Should I be expecting more at this stage and what can I look to change?
The plant looks healthy otherwise - any experienced help would be greatly appreciated6y ago

Anyone know what's going on with these buds? Is this foxtailing or genetics?Does anyone know what's going on with this bud? Foxtailing? Genetics? she's crazy sticky and smells great, but the buds just look weird. She's standing right next to an OG Kush and the plants are night and day, the Kush looking exactly as you'd expect.Week 8

How do I best help fatten her buds?Not sure how to fatten up her buds. A bit on the struggle bus, and really want to get this right. I just added Floralicious and Koolbloom from G.H. - but I'm scared to kill her. (like I did my last grow. This will be first *hopefully* successful grow.)Week 10

How are we looking for 12 weeks? #twomoreweeks?Can i have a little estimate on how long she still has to go? taking pictures of trichomes is quite hard, sorry.
I'm still giving normal bloom nutes but i'm guessing i should start flushing soon despite using only organic products?
and finally, are my buds looking a little small?4y ago
