1 out of 16 plants covered in tiny stringy buds, any thoughts?

[harryohm]

Good Morning! So out of my 16 plants (10 in greenhouse, 6 outside) 1, which happens to be the tallest of them all at almost 10 ft, is covered with thin stringy buds with white and red pistils. All the others are doing exactly what one would hope with big fat juicy colas covered with milky terpenes as we get nearer to harvest time. I'm not sure what to do with this one other than possibly use it to make Charas. It seems healthy other than the stems looking too thin to even be able to support anything bigger than what's on it now. I'm letting it go to see what happens but hash might be the only option and I'm ok with that. BTW, all poles and ropes were put up after a huge crazy rain and wind storm when it got blown over. It's in a 30 gal cloth grow pot. Any thoughts?

Hard to tell what you're referring to...Close up pics, please?

Did you start these plants from seed?

And what strain is this?

 

[GNick55]

i’m seeing lots of three fingered leaves, you may have a pest issue or a mold issue..

I guess I was just wondering what to do with a 10 ft tall plant that is covered with thin stringy buds. All my other plants have beautiful thick heavy buds and colas except this one. What I think I've decided i'm going to do is what I used to do up in the Himalayas and that is make hand Charas like they do in Malana (where I've actually been)...

yes, I start all my plants from seed. It's a Sativa but some wise-ass friend of mine pulled a few of the strain markers I had in the pots so I'm not positive but it's either a Sour D or Durban Poison... And I've grown a lot of both strains and never seen anything like this!
and there are no pests or mold on the plant but I think it was just a weird freak of a plant that did it's own thing. I've never seen a plant like this... but this does happen in nature all the time...

Is it a male or female?

I feel like we're playing a game of Charades!

Looks to me like its just different pheno of some haze

Female from feminized seeds. here are a few close-ups...

 

[harryohm]

And funny you should ask as another friend wondered if it was male but it's covered in pistils and calyxes.. and no seeds!!! it's either a mutant or a mixup in the seeds when ordered but I think it will make some great hand-rubbed Charas! the buds are just gonna be too small to smoke.... and I have way more than enough to experiment with...

 

[BionicKroniK]

Kinda looks like a male hemp plant or a wild cannabis plant, which is usually thinner-stringy leaves...

Is there a hemp farm near you? We know someone that had about an acre of about 300 plants, but the hemp farm that was about 30 miles away from him had pollinated his whole grow!

 

[Allegedly]

Reminds me of the Dr grinspoon strain. Although that's probably not what you have.

Weird, never seen anything like it! I just thinned out some of my lower branches, the buds aren't done, almost no brown hairs and sparse still, but I had to for airflow so I don't get mold... anywho... I plan on using all my little popcorn buds to make butter. I hang them by the arms and literally strip from one end of the other into a bag with one swoop per branch once it's dry, like stripping leaves off flowers for a bouquet, then I still cure for a short while, then decarb, then make butter. Tons of uses for popcorn buds that aren't worth the hassle to smoke.

Look up dr grin spoon man. I maybe saw one brown bug on the plants but that’s it.

My bad you said buds. Those really look like that strain. Idk if it’s a mutation or what but likely unstable or mislabeled genetics.

 

[Mugwort]

Like you said...”freaky things happen in nature”. It looks very stony though and will probably make some xlnt edibles or hashish.

I just looked dr grinspoon and you are absolutely right...looks just like it!

 

[RealizedReal000]

Yeah man. Very stealthy. I would reveg it and then clone it.

that's exactly what I'm thinking, hash or edibles. I also make maple syrup and was thinking of combining the 2 to make "Mapibles"...

I'm gonna keep it going as long as I can and who knows maybe the buds will fatten up...
