Hey guys! First time indoor grower minus one Smokey outdoor 2020 grow. I’m in a 2×3 with a 1000w marshydro, at about day 65 of flower on my blue dream photo period. I am flushing and have some great fall colors coming on. I looked today and noticed some new pistols forming on a few of the buds. Not sure if this is fox tailing from previous stress. Light change from t5 to the 1000w at flower flip? Not sure, thought I was getting close to harvest, now worried I should let it go another week. Trip homes are still clearish, some damages tru homes and some trichomes turning purple even. Here are the photos, any and all feedback is appreciated.
S.O.S save our soil
Need to get on the Recharge game out in Oregon!
thanks guys, keep up the good work!
I actually just ran a whole room of blue dream photo and it fox tailed LIKE CRAZY the last 3 weeks. the only stresses they were ever put under were one day of 89degrees F other than that it was smooth sailing, still had foxtails..
The plant will continuously throw pistles, that’s not what fox tailing is. I can’t really see Foxtailing on your plants. Foxtailing would be calyxes stacking on top of each other, and growing upwards like little fingers towards the light. Sometimes it’s genetic sometimes it’s due to heat and high light levels. Your plants are looking good! Also, look closely at your light when you get a chance, see if it states true wattage anywhere, very doubtful you’re pushing 1000 watts in a two by three and not frying your plants, I’m guessing that light is really 200 Watts or so. Don’t concern yourself with pistles or foxtailing at this point, keep an eye on the tricomes. You want them to be almost all cloudy with some Amber, I wouldn’t harvest if you’re seeing a lot of clear.
Trout bum nailed the fox tailing and light power on the head so only one thing to add here. I run 3 viparspectra 1000 which are very similar to marshydro 1000 and mine are actually only equivalent to about a 250w of HID per light.
