If its a clone thats really weird. Mother getting old? I doubt it. How many times has it been generations has it been cloned now? Either way, i think it looks ok still. If they dont fill in id cut them off for hash when you trim cause big foxtails look like crap if you leave en on but the other bud looks good. Good luck man, hope she turns out for ya.

Thanks mate ,
Yeah I hear ya , the nuggets would look crap with the stragnly bits left on , if I had my way I would hurl them off now ,
The main cola's are growing normally and no signs of any herm bits so I guess all I can do really Is let her run,
thankyou for your input....

I think that is still a form of foxtailing. Yours are foxtailing with major stretch. Isn't that caused by too much N or light leaks?

Some ppl say to much N, others not enough , there are no light leaks in or out.

is this a stable strain?

imo, if your running clone it must be some type of stress in
your routine, all your vitals could be right on, but it could be stressing
over alot of different things, if seed it could be a tard, whats your N
levels that you feed? hiw far away is your light?

Hey uk, I have had foxtailing on a couple of grows. Never could find a concrete reason as to why some plants do this. I have a northern lights doing the same thing on my current grow. I did clip a few of the stretchyest tops just to see what would happen and for the most part the side foxtails just continued to grow and the ones i didn't clip grew too which is interfering with my height limits, wish i had clipped them all now. I think you will be fine whatever you choose to do. Looks like you are going to have a good harvest....enjoy.

Thanks for your comments , I really can not find a downside to having them , after doing some research I noticed that some ppl actually wish for them,
I don't have any height issues but to me they do not look pretty and I could do without , I have given the main cola's a squeeze and they seem to be filling out nicely so nothing gained nothing lost I suppose, I will post more pics of her in a week or so ....
Go steady ....

Hi ,
I use vert bulb's in parabolic umbrella style hoods so heat from the bulbs is not an issue,
My feeds are Vitalink Plus , Canna Torres and canna pk13/14 , all of which have an N value of around 2.2 - 2.5%
Thanks for your comments ,
Go steady..........
