PCaddict's 1st Grow Journal

I did the same with my NL. I haven’t gotten into the NL much yet, but the testers have been excellent.

I just vaped this stuff I got a while back at the dispensaries called Grape Head and they said it is 33% THC. I doubt it is that high but I am getting a nice buzz from it.

You might want to try taking some pictures of the trichomes again. You might not have till Monday. Sit on a chair and put your elbows on your knees to steady things. Works for me. Or have your wife or friend try.

I agree. I think it's time to break out the scissors.

I just use a pole as a monopod - any stiff stick long enough will do. At least it takes care of all the up and down movement.

And as long as we're in the innuendo thread, yes, "any stiff stick long enough will do."

Didn't you give them another week or so after thay started a second bloom. That Y/G is some good stuff

they did two more weeks and it was worth it you get more how can that be bad!

This is all new to me I have heard about it and seen it on a few journals. Is Foxtails bad ?

As I didn’t see anyone answer you, no foxtailing is not a bad thing, just makes for funky looking bud and is less dense.

 

[ilikemsticky]

how come this one is so much more clear than the others looking good pc!

 

[The Celt]

As for why 2 plants and not the other 2, genetic variability.

The first time it happened to me, I did some research and the best I could find was that Sativa and Sativa dominate strains are more likely to foxtail than Indica. Other than that, no other concrete reason for it happening

 

[Graytail]

As I didn’t see anyone answer you, no foxtailing is not a bad thing, just makes for funky looking bud and is less dense.

But I wouldn't agree with less dense. Sure, in a fluffy sativa it makes 'em look even worse, and in a tight OG it makes 'em look all "wrong", but for most hybrids like this they just get knarly and crunchy. And all that new growth is packed with fresh trichs.

 

[Pennywise]

I’ve always liked foxtailing

 

[PotChimp]

Hopefully there's no problems, but have you by any chance taken one of those larger colas in this grow and pried the individual nugs apart by hand to take a look inside? I'm pretty sure I'm in the same growing zone that you are, and it's wet as Hell this time of year. Bud rot gets to my plants bad when they have colas or nugs wider than an empty paper towel roll, which is the reason I switched to growing mostly Sativa dominant strains during early Spring to mid-Summer.

 

[Scottylikesbud]

Good morning I cut off all my colas yesterday, and just left the lower growth lol idk my first successful grow I’d say in my 4 years. I also suspect I have this foxtailing you speak of. 11 weeks into flower now.

 

[Pennywise]

Foxtails are pretty common.

 

[PCaddict]

So is this second push of pistols common ?

 

[Pennywise]

Yea it’s not uncommon

 

[Fastass419]

Looking good over here how you doing bud

 

[Duggan]

Foxtails are just the plants attempts to keep things alive untill pollination happens.They are all good...no worriez.

Give them some more time.
