Foxtailing???

What is foxtailing? My last batch had some foxtailing but didn't really affect the quality but really drove me nuts. Researched it quite a bit and all info led me to the same conclusion. Genetics. I got my clones from the same place on this batch and I'm getting near the end and not positive but looking like there may be a little going on here as well. What do you guys think?

From my understanding its genetic or can be caused by light stress. It doesn't seem to affect quality but causes airy buds. That pic does look like the tailing is to bad imo. Looking good

Could be stress related. That plant is way overfed, too much nitrogen.

Currently experiencing extreme foxtailing with 5 Alive. Lollipoped buds were like grenades until I moved the plant from the perimeter of my grow, to the center, just because I wanted it to finish already.... Foxtails are like one calyx, almost 2" long. Next time, I may move it further away from light intensity to finish, definitely not toward the hot spot.

Genetics, other strains don't do that as badly.... apparently, there are other triggers, too much jasmonic acid and/or other hormones. Not quitting this strain, gotta figure it out.

I suspect that i prompted my last grow to foxtail, with P K boosters. Used em too much, too soon I think. Also grew under a CMH which got a bit close to the plants, but since even the lower buds foxtailed, i suspected it was my use of boosters.

I also used canna pk for a week last week since they were about 3 weeks out. Going to cut that stuff out in my next batch. Seems to be a headache more than anything.

How much A/B ml per gallon you giving them ? What ppm? Looks like you overfeed them a little based on the leaves…but foxtails are mostly genetic and your buds look good so I’m guessing it’s the genetics. My last grow I did runtz and also had foxtailing but it came out fire.
