Hey guys, I've got this Bubblicious Autoflower kind of sandwiched into a 12/12 cycle with 5 photoperiod plants, and not sure what's going on with some of the upper colas. They had a darkened appearance, some places brown, some places a little more purple almost blood red on the calyx.
Since this is an AF and it's been growing for 17! weeks and was only supposed to be 9-10 weeks from seed, I really expected it to be ready to harvest NOW but looking at the trichomes I'm not so sure anymore. Knew it would take longer since I cut the light to 12/12 when I started flowering the photos, but still...
Medium: 3g fabric , ocean forest & perlite
Lights: 2-240w LED boards, 1 of which is positioned above this plant and two others ( I have two rows of three plants ).
Environment: Averaging about 75F / 53-54% RH. 69-70F in lights off. No higher than 82F, usually closer to 78F with lights on.
Nutes: GH Flora Micro/Bloom (lucas), Calimagic, Armor Si, RO water, always pH'd. Also adding Hydroguard to my reservoir (pre-mixed about 15 gallons or 1 week at a time). I wait about 2-3 days between waterings, until the pots are light, but before the plants wilt.
She's a beaut.
These tips are worrying me:
Those sections all have tons of amber trichomes.
Are these brown spots something bad?
Or yellow spots?
The lower buds without the purpling look normal.
I hope this isn't mold or something????????
Sorry for the photobomb... anyone want to comfort me LOL ?
