buds with elongated 'sections' stretching out??

not sure how to describe what happens to me regularly, but within the same grow some plants turn out great and some end up with buds that have these elongated parts with colas on them rather than buds all densely packed together. This happens sometimes whether I try organic or chem nutes. It's like the buds are 'stretching out' for lack of a better description. Once dried the buds are super airy and pretty much suck. Its almost like the buds are full of stem or something. I will get a pic tomorrow of a good example but any opinions would be appreciated.

Foxtailing maybe, high temps cause this and ive ran into it before, sometimes I think too much nutes may cause it too, jmo but I slowed the nutes down a bit when temps get above 85° F indoors, they do some crazy shit when temps get too high .

Hey All, I'm running 2 different genos of Train Wreck and 1 constantly gets the foxtailing. The other puts out nice uniform buds. 2nd gen no change.

photo (2).jpgHere is a pic, this is what plagues me constantly. This is outdoor, and it was shrouded in a vegetable garden so it didn't get good light, I also gave it zero nutes and I know that is probably a huge part of the problem. But bottom line is this happens to me indoors just the same when I try to get nutes right. Foxtailed buds, lots of leaves and stems, not good in general and harsh. I do think maybe I've been overdoing it with nitrogen and this time around I'm cutting it almost to nothing now that I'm in week two flower.

Yeah dude, next time you order seeds or clones go with some well know heavy indicas

I did start with indica seeds, I still get this sometimes. And even within the same batch of seeds and two plants side by side with identical conditions/nutes, one will get like this and one will be great. My last grow though probably 75% got like this.
