light burn question

one of my four plants in week 3 of flowering made a beeline for my light bulb during the 4 days i had to go out of town, it severely outgrew the rest vertically and i didn't calculate for it.

all the pistils on the development of the top cola are pretty grey and toasty looking. since this is my first grow my question will the cola still develop and that will just be a small part of it by the end or will that part of the plant not produce?

i dont know for sure if it will continue to grow out like this, but I would try snipping off the burned part. hopefully it will regrow it. im no expert tho

I've seen both things happen. Sometimes that cola shuts down and sits there brownly frozen in time. Other times it grows right through it. Kinda depends on the strain, time into flowering, and severity of burn. If I had to guess, I think yours might be the frozen variety.

Hey just get down to the very beginning of the burnt growth and snip it completely out I mean all the way out (the burnt stuff) then sit and wait in about a week or so you will see the bud continue to grow. It may take longer for other strains but it will continue to form.
