I've never seen nuts just fall off for no reason before. Only way mine come off is when they are cut. Unless you got some gigantic nugs growing on lil tiny stems, I don't really see this being normal. Plant showin any kind of problems?

Weird post.

But as others have said, definitely give 'er the chop, or if you have the means to check the crystal colour have a look. If it's milky/amber, chop it. If it's still clear, give your branches some support and chop in a week or whatever.

sounds like your plant may be so ripe the stems are degrading to the point where they can no longer support the weight of the buds

flowering since end of july. started really sluggish then plumped up like crazy all over. the branches are still green but under the big chunks theirs small nugs that have dropped.

Can you get your hands on a scope of sorts? Even a magnifying glass is better than the naked eye.

is a qp wet for a single plant unheard of?
a QP wet for a single plant? Would that be around 4oz? 16oz in a POUND???

I get that and more per plant final dry weight!

So 4oz WET on a plant is definately not unheard of.


Pics below of my last harvest. 4 plant hydro system.


Netted 12.33oz dry bud after loosing approx 3oz to trimming and some to bud rot.

it was just a branch or 2 that had nug pieces fall to the ground. if they are budworms, everything will be re inspected.
another question: if spider mites are seen on the fan leaves but not the buds does that mean its still bad? the outdoor sativa has crystally nugs so beautiful but theirs mites on the underside of the big leave so were not sure if its worth to try and save.
