Hey Flow - That type of growth is called "foxtailing" and it happens when the flowers get too much light or nutes from what I can find in my quick research. Look up foxtailing on Google or search on RIU. I think it looks great and I know LJ saw some of this on his Diablo grow so we will see what he has to say about it.
Cheers,
Mo
thanx Mo

i actually had this on 1 cola on my first grow, maybe you are correct, they are receiving a hell of alot of light penetration, especially seeing my canopy is mostly 1 level....i dont think its an issue, the buds themselves were splendid when they did this the first time

i actually thought my light was fairly high for this grow its about 6 inches higher than i usually go, i would more so tip toward being heavy on the nutes

i always dose hard toward the end, according to the cyco feed schedule u up the e.c and ppms toward the end, to put the extra weight on, seems to work out just fine, i still top up with nutrient during the week, but i'm flushing heavily with florakleen this grow. i can't wait to try the results!! i am ssoo excited!!
thanx guys for your input also, i am expecting to go around 52 days, today being day 45. so 1 more week from now. and then my new Jack/skunk clone goes in!!!!!!
and that will be a fukin show for sure!!, new aircooled hood and ducting, the works
Hi, Mo and friends! It's past noon and I just got out of bed! I'll try to comment intelligibly in a moment. Let me wash up. BRB.
Edit: Yes. I agree. I think foxtailing is a sign that the plant's growth cycle is being pushed to the max by time/nute/lights. I should know a thing or two about that. Lol.
I eat cat hairs, I breathe them, I smoke them... I drink them in my koolaid as well. They don't even have to be in the general area. Their hairs will find a way.
But I'll make sure your sample is clean, Mo.
wow slanty!! that purple looks insane!!!! my little clones outside are turning a shade of purple in the tips of the buds!!! it is getting cold these mornings but not quite freezing!! i sish i could dump an ac in my grow room to freeze her during dark cycle. i would love some colour like that! some people say frost is bad for buds, but i think they somehow protect themselves, and the purpling effect is just awesome!! wow man i'm soo jealous
