sheesh man sorry nobody has helped out yet, I wish I could give you some knowledge but I’m a newbie myself. If I had to take any guess I would say bad lighting? Could also just be in really poor overall health. Maybe improper lighting, or environment, root problems, pests, etc etc. I notice a lot of leaves curling up down some burnt some yellowing etc etc also, it almost looks like a male to me. I’ve never seen flowers like that before… like the clusters in the screenshot I took, very weird looking.



@GNick55 @Captspaulding any ideas?

Thank you for the reply! I agree, something seems off with both of these. I've grown in the same place for the last 4 years but it has rained a lot more this year than others. It gets direct sun from about 11am-6pm probably, it's a very airy place as well. No pests etc that I've seen. I have a 3rd plant which is Northern Lights photo, non-autoflower, and it looks good so far.

It most likely it only gettting maybe an hour of direct sunlight at high noon. Other than that if you look at the way the calyx are stacking in the flower, it’s trying to bloom outwards. Instead of upwards, it’s trying to get to the light between the slats I think. That’s what’s causing the sparcity in growth. No solid light schedule.

Thank you for the reply. They do get sun throughout the day but ya maybe not enough, I didn't know they need more light than photos. Is there anything I can do with these? Harvest at all? Or just trash? Thanks for the help!

I also meant to ask, does it stay breezy in between them fences? Or does the air get stuffy at all? At soil level? Heat also causes these issues. Also the light colored fence, that is a color that will reflect a ton of light at peak sun. With it being in between the fences like that, it may also be an airflow thing that’s causing it, so a, heat b, placement and c airflow are all contributing factors.

It was a bad time to take the photo, it was in the evening and the sun was setting below the trees behind me. Where they are, the sun is actually directly over for many hours. The breeze generally does go through there, not from the slats in the fence. It has been abnormally hot and humid in Ontario this year which could play into it. My previous harvests with photos have been decent, never huge buds but decent size and many. I can't say how much exactly but I normally get 8 or 9 large mason jars packed pretty full from 3 plants or so. I don't have any pictures of my previous grows unfortunately.

I think you are right that maybe this isn't the best grow location and that the autos might just be pickier. I will try moving them into a less restrictive area and see if anything changes.
