11 weeks into flowering. Burnt main cola.

[Revilgaz]

So I'm on week 11 and have a super burnt main cola. I should have about 1 more week of flowering. I assume this is just garbage at this point? Chop it off and move on?

 

[cat of curiosity]

let it go and harvest normally. don't do it next time.

Did that cola grow into the light or something? RIP Crispy

 

[Alienwidow]

Personally id take it off. Could be starting to mold in there. Salvage what you can before the cola gets worse.

 

[SweetestCheeba]

I would chop it as well. Don't let that mistake draw nutes from the rest of the plant.

 

[Revilgaz]

It's no closer to the lights than any of the other colas. Don't know why it burned like that.

 

[Nugachino]

Is it more central though? Could be a focal point somewhere. However unlikely that may sound.

Could be a heat spot causing the burn, do you have a fan blowing on that cola?

It didnt look like it was close to the lights. Thats why i was thinking prune it off, just incase theres a problem that could spread. Who knows, a caterpillar might have nested in it or mold could have gotten in there. It would be best to know whats inside it.

to me it looks moldy as hell, does it smell like a basement? Carefully get rid of it if it's mold and bleach bomb your room after it's done. If that is mold i can almost guarantee that's not the only bud that has it. How long has it been turning brown?

 

[Revilgaz]

I just cut it off. Opened it up and it looked normal. Smelled normal. Was just super crispy.

 

[Nugachino]

Early crummy tester of the smoke then?

 

[dirtWeevil]

oh wow that is really weird then lol

 

[Uberknot]

Hell yeah I'd chop that out of my grow...it does look odd colored compared to the greener area's.

 

[dirtWeevil]

when you cut it was the main stem already broken?

 

[Freddie Millergogo]

You got circulating fans bro?

Something is very weird here. A light burn would usually be just the top bit. This is far more pervasive on that cola. Almost like spider mites eating from the top down which never happens. They go bottom up. DirtWeevil may be right. I am doubting this is light burn. Not good. Something is wrong.

 

[Revilgaz]

I have fans circulating and every other part of the plant looks fine. Stem was fine.

 

[AimAim]

That is kind of strange. I'd cut all the brown portion off. Gotta be pretty loaded w/goodies by now, if not worth smoking I'd throw it in a batch of butter trimmings.

I had a similar thing happen same exact circumstances. I wish I had a picture, it was one of the tops and only one. None of the rest of the plant was affected, same exact symptoms, brown and crispy. Didn't smell out of the ordinary to me. Very odd indeed.
