I thought the same thing. Heat. But temp stress in general maybe...? I've gotten pretty sweet foxtailing that's denser - During cold temps (50s-60s) but I figured it was genetics not the temps. They aren't the good kind when it's caused by heat. I have found that the heat-induced foxtail buds stretch out and get loose. Won't really ever fill in and that's the issue.Are you saying the colder temps make foxtails? I thought it was the opposite.
Something like this has already been said but I have also found there to be different "styles" of foxtailing as well and it isn't desirable MOST of the time. I actually like seeing the little stubby dense ones ones on big colas but idk if you can really call that foxtailing. It seems like it's just how the bud swells. Genetics imo.
It was a jack herer x blueberry I'm talking about that had shitty loose fox tails from heat. (More like to close to lights - temps overall were fine) I tried to hit em with more light during the last few weeks to encourage more growth /swell. Rookie move a while back. Bud was of decent quality in the end.
Me as well... The herer pheno I played with did that... foxtails like a madman if the temp gets up over 80.
