anyone know why the odd bud formation

[sromes1]

my neighbor has 4 plants growing 2 from feminized seed and 2 from regular seeds. the 2 from non- feminized seeds has from a distance nice buds. But up close only the tips show white pistils, and only at the upper sections of the plant , below that there's none showing pistals. Any idea whats happening? It was a very hot summer is that have aborted their growth. posted elsewhere but this site shows larger photos.someone mentioned they are foxtail buds ,

er they are resuming

growing at the tips. The other 2 plants show normal bud development but started growing their buds later.

Looks like an over ripe seeded plant or some serious rot but i could be wrong. Usually am.

I second that, looks to have seeds and some rot going on...

the 2 others next to these have no seeds, so they weren't pollinated from another plant and if they were hermies and self pollenated wouldn't the other 2 have seeds as well?. they are growing in a confined area and rot was one of the things I suspected

If it were a hermie and self pollinated this could happen as nanners dont usually contain the amount of pollen a male pollen sac would hold. None of those photos look like anything I'd save or risk smoking.

we checked these2x a day and never saw any pollen sacs on his plants,I found them on mine and pulled them at first sign

Is it possible that first sign was to late? Other neighbors growing nearby? They may have had a male and didnt pull it.

we looked daily so don't think we miss seeing sacs, I'm the only other neighbor growing and pulled at first sign. I started 20 from seed expecting to pull half and gave my neighbor the 2 plants we are discussing

Check the buds for seeds, if no seeds then chek for mold. Either way id cut those buds off and discard them. They dont look healthy and i dont think the risk is worth the reward IMHO.

I believe those are russet or spider mites. Not 100% but its definitely a mite of some variety.

Pretty sure they are russet mites.

that is most likely russet mites, they really suck and can often come back again next year. Maybe try a different site next year. Plus lots of ipm through out beg and early flower
