Your good. That’s not even really foxtailing. A sometimes it’s heat but a lot of times it’s genetic. I got strains foxtail in regular rock hard trich coated dank.Hi people,
I am having this tiny foxtailing problem. This is the second time i grow these plants. They are clones from mothers that didn’t show foxtailing first run.
I thought it may be because it was getting too much light cause its mostly at the top colas but i noticed some of the lower ones show minimal foxtailing too.
I pulled up my lights to about 16” and i am out of vertical space now. It was at like 12” or so because i didn’t had any headspace, i thought they would be ok, guess not.
What i want to ask is. What do you think is causing this foxtailing?
They are different strains, 2 Dinachem and 2 Northern Lights and they all exhibit this symptom, so the lights seem like the most plausible culprit right?
I suspected the lights so turned of an 80w cob and moved it to 16”. Was getting 80+K lux with cheap lightmeter, now i am getting 40K lux.
Ps: they are about 15 days away from harvest.

Sorry bro's I disagree. I think its much harsher of a smoke.Your good. That’s not even really foxtailing. A sometimes it’s heat but a lot of times it’s genetic. I got strains foxtail in regular rock hard trich coated dank. View attachment 837131Ugly pic. I deleted most my pics recently. But you can see how the top is. And it’s fire produces a lot of kief too. Dense too.
They went about 60 days last run and the high is good so i was thinking of pulling them at 60. There is a miscalculation there they have 10 days left maximum. It is the 50th day of flowering now. I dont think they have been going for too long.To me, they look like they are about done. When I start to see that, it is typically when the plant is spent and is going too long. Surprisingly, corn will do the same thing if left too long in the field. I often find a small nub at the end of a huge cola when trying to let it get huge-er. Too much heat can also cause it, so look for hot spots if it's just in one area.
I hope not cause these are some tasty good weed and it is not a bad case of foxtailing either so we’ll see :)They look great. Don't worry, the foxtailing won't cause any loss in weight or quality. I actually like the explosion look, as long as the trimmers are careful with them :)
I have been getting readings with a laser thermometer and at the top of the buds i was getting 29C max. This is the reading i get from the plant tissue ambient is probably never over 25. I was actually worried it was getting a bit cold. I grew these plants without any foxtailing in summer and it was hotter then. Total mindfuck.I dont see any real foxtailing.lower the temps a little
Hope it will be better for me. I know my buds have tightened up cause when i shake the branches to fell the weight of the nugs, i fell they are packing on some weight, and the smell seems is good too. Never squezed the buds but when i brush up against them by mistake my whole arm smell :) i hope it wont be a harsh smoke tho.Sorry bro's I disagree. I think its much harsher of a smoke.
The trichromes are usually pretty much the only thing this plant does have an adundance of.
The smell/resin production is something that seems affected when this happens to me. I had the same issue . the plant never tightened up. Just produced white hairs on top of the orange ones
These have grown very well in the first run and it was in summer so it was hotter. I am really lost right now. If i havent fed them alfalfa fpe by mistake there arent any reasons for them to foxtail. I hope i havent fed them alfalfa when i was high :DYour good. That’s not even really foxtailing. A sometimes it’s heat but a lot of times it’s genetic.

They have been getting water from the start, no feeding. One of them is almpst completely faded and even that has foxtails. Dont know man, i know its not nutes but dont know what it is..Maybe cut back on feeding i've noticed high ppms (overfeeding) can cause foxtailing as well .
Yeah mine are not that bad.. yet! :DView attachment 837136 should I start lowering ppm?
These were in with my autos and turned out to be photos. I treated am like autos so the fought back a little. Cal mag issue .Blah blah blah... Should I lower ppm to say 500 ppm for pic #2
She smells lovely and is from the same batch of Foxtail bitch ass CK white widows. Next is cheese/haze sativa dominant photos. @greencraft ??
Now that’s a foxtail.FoxtailingView attachment 837179
Hope not :) i mean it is not a very bad case so i dont know maybe i caught it in time.fox tailing is based on 2 factors, genetics and environment/temps
The genetic based foxtails will be as potent as a regular bud, they just suck for bag appeal. But potency is still there. :D Heat related foxtailing is a potency killer.
Very nice foxtailing, kudos :DFoxtailingView attachment 837179
