Hey RG, that's a sight! Can't tell you what though. Some buds do funny things, it's called something I can't remember. I had a couple do this
full

Is yours getting to look anything like it?

LED bleaching from those blurple lights of yours. Might be too close.

Light Bleached Cannabis Buds Sometimes Turn White
Light bleaching is most common with high-power LEDs and HPS grow lights because these can be brighter than the sun. Basically, bud bleaching is what happens when buds get too much light, kinda like how hair can get bleached if you spend plenty of time in the sun.

Every lights a little different, and every strain has its own quirk on distance. My flowers like 16in at 80% @VIVOSUN vsf6450

But have grown past the light bar also about 10-12in

Totally that. With Mars FC6500’s (730W) I run 8” when I can but with Co2 - 12” otherwise.

My only comment on that look is I had something similar last time. Thought light burn. But actually the plant had died. Should have harvested that day. Natural death. But then got some mould. Can’t tell from those pictures but consider that too. Whatever the seed guidance says it can earlier as much as later.

Sorry replying to my own post - but for me the lesson learned was towards the end - gloves on daily and pull the buds apart for inspection you see any weirdness. If you do - chop it. @Carmen Ray was all over it recently and made a great save. Not saying its that but the two can go hand in hand - looked like light burn to me then I had all this white stuff I didn’t want chasing a few more days flower.

Have a check right inside the buds.

Thanks Nick, you're right. I have been doing battle with bud rot this past week. I wouldn't have known what to look for if I had not spotted the spores in a photograph I took of trichomes. I think it's a very good idea to be checking for signs at this stage of the grow, particularly with any kind of variation in growth. This is the photo that got me harvesting.
