foxtailing buds at 5weeks

2 of my buds have started foxtailing, at least thats what I think they are doing. I posted a pic of the worst of the 2.

I know foxtailing can be a genetic thing late in flowering, but can the be other causes?

These 2 buds are the only ones doing it to a concerning extent. The other 20 or so on the plant either have none or its minimal.

Any help would be appreciated.

not sure what you mean by foxtailing

but they look like light burn to me

i see nothing?

I guess what I mean by foxtailing is, what was once a nice compact cola has kinda stretched itself.
I posted a more zoomed in pic , maybe Im crazy but these 2 look totally different than the others. ( posted a pic of another bud for comparison)

Don't know that I would worry about it, could be a pheno thing (dna trait)

could be a mutant thing, you could try switching pot positions in your room and see if it does anything different?

I say that cause you may have a hot spot in your room (light, temp, airflow)

ive seen buds like that in HT mags and sum online like riddleme sayed mite jus b a pheno thing. i woodnt worry to much as long as ther healthy

too much mis-information among all the children hanging out on here..

I have a plant thats foxtailing too..i read it can be also cause by too much nitrogen, i think that is why mine did it...too much N in the food..

but you're right in that i think itspartly genetics too..

Also like riddleme said their are definitely some hot spots due to the leaf burn on tips foil is suspect to me, because it looks like it is krinkled.

not foil , just a ghetto mylar job. I agree it is probably heat related , since the 2 doing it are close to each other. I bent them down away from the lights pretty good, hopefully it helps.

Thanks for all your help guys.

my silver haze tends to do that late in flower, seems good though those buds are usually huge

will the bud recover, or is it stuck looking retarded?

Hard to tell? But I honestly would not worry about it

cool , paranoid first timer here
thanks for the help riddle
