Sweet Purple, some issues...

Hey guys! Well it has now beed a month since the flowering has started, and for the most part, everything is going on track. Yesterday, I unfortunately woke up to my system holding the plant up having collapsed. I found the plant laying sideways, and I moved it quite a bit in the day to fix it and now it's back on track. My issues concern some buds, mostly on the left. It seems like hte strong white hairs have started to dry out and look like their dying. It's a little hard to see in the picture, so the first one is one of my healthy buds, and second 2 show the issue I have. It defenately could be caused by the stress it has been through, but any other clues? The top is not looking too good either, buds are growing but defenately not my nicest ones and it looks like its having a rough time. Any comments would be appreciated!

1 reson of many the hairs are dying is because they may have been pollinated.

Dude that would really suck if that was the case! I doubt it though since I have had only 1 plant since the beginning of the flowering and there is no other way pollen could have sneaked in there. Thx though for the info.

my buddy once grew 10 foot tall sweet purples....10 ft dude and it was all purple i swear crazy shit...

Looks like heat burn. What are you running for lights? How close? On a mover?

430W phillips, yeah I've been keeping it a little too close cuz I started lacking room before the breakdown, heat burn would make a lot of sense...Are the buds still gonne come out rich? Should the top be cut in order to let other buds developp more?

i would also agree that it is burn from the light, i bet if you give it some extra water and move the lights a little further away it will cure itself, also some b-1 would help it a lot. good luck hope you get a good yield on your purp

Not sure why you'd give it EXTRA water. Just pull the light up a bit and try to point your fan so it moves the air right under the light. This should drop it about 5-10 degrees under the light.I used to have two 400 watter about a 12-15 above the canopy w/ a 6" inline fan to cool the lights plus a fan blowing all the radiated heat from the bulb. Now i run a 600 watt on a mover about 4 inches from the canopy.

PS. First signs of heat burn on early flowering plants is the withered stigmas. If they get shriveled up then its too close, especially directly under the bulb.

Hmm what if this drying/dying of pistils is going on all over the buds of the plant, even when its nowhere close to the light or any source of heat? I'm treating it for powder mildew, could it be related to that?

Sorry not sure about the mildew. I move way to much air to have mold issues in my setup. Don't think its mold.

What are you using for nutes? how much? What kind of soil or soiless mix? temps? humidity? ventalation? Need a little more info to help you out.

I'm currently giving 50ml of an flowering soluting of NPK: 2, 6, 8 and an additional solution of 4, 0, 2 and I have B-1 complex 1-2-3- from bc plant products. I have 3 fans but no professional ventilation system. I try to keep temps between 22-30 and humidity between 40-60, but sometimes fluctuating. I must say it is doing better than before, and the dying of the hairs seems to have decreased. Heres some pics once agian...

damn thats a nice looking little plant
