is that a bad thing because I notice some on the bud I was afraid it was seeds but its not i fig it was just part of the plant

some bad, some infertile, but if you see them, there is an increase in the rate of Gibberellic Acid being produced. Too much Nitrate N or P, to wet dry, hot cold...

Chill your water overnight it will help with the colour. I'm not clear why actually. Let's ask... @GT21

If you have plants that are at different stages of flower it's sometimes good to just pull a plant that's showing jenners at the end of its cycle.

Keeping your rh low will keep them from making fluffy bud as well...when u have high rh in bloom,they produce fluffier bud to combat bud rot/mold..

Colder temps make it harder for the plant to uptake p(or was it k?)witch causes a deficency that causes the purpling..at least that's what I've read

I started out with AN, then switched to Heavy 16. About a year and a half ago I switched over to Hydroponic Research and I haven't looked back. I am producing the HIGHEST QUALITY I have ever produced......and spending a hell of a lot less.

Veg+Bloom FTW! The only AN products I use is up and down, but 90% of the time my reservoir lands right at 5.8 so I hardly use them anymore.

You dont have to have a chiller. Just put some in the fridge or outside if its cold enough where you live (covered of course). You can also sit bags of ice in your bucket.

U ever try salts bro?I think I've tried everything (except heavy16 yet)but done a bunch of side by sides,advanced nutrients, canna,etc,and the salts always performed just as well..I use Jack's hydro and calnit,along w epsom and a booster,,and I never have an issue w pH,build up,lock out,etc..the thing is,the $70 I spent on the little buckets of jacks last year,are still half full.hard to get cheaper than that.I grow in coco..had the drip emittors fed by resavor,on a timer..was feeding 3 times a day like that..fastest growth I've ever had..worth checking out.I use the 321 recipe.now I feed by hand...don't grow in house so I need to hook up auto feed again..but yeah,I threw away all the fancy bottles and got simple.couldn't be happier...I use botanicare kind two part in veg tho...with microbes and silica..ewc and bubble.I can use the salts in veg too but I like going natural and gental in veg

Yes..environment is neglected by lots of growers..but IMO its the most important factor..good air exchange and movement will also make stronger plants that have less chance of pm/mold/pest

I think your in great shape...keep it clean too..never bring in plants or dirt from outside neither..I made that mistake as a rookie and paid the price in the form of a two year war with knats and spider mites...I won battles but they'd always come back...I finally won the war eventually
