buds turning brown

[buckyboy]

Went to check on my babies today and noticed a couple of buds are turning brown on me. Even the bud leaves are brown. Its only a couple of buds on 1 plant. Is this a problem? Please tell me it aint mold. PLEASE HELP! I'M WORRIED.

sounds like a mold issue.

Watch for the mold to spread.

Are your plants in buckets or in ground?
You may have left them to bud abit to long. How long do they have left?
Have you got any frost outside?

Leaves and steam and buds will change colour from cold also so be sure its not just the plants reacting to temp changes?

brown is not good though so hope you fix your problem soon.

They are in the ground

cut down the brown buds asap. This sounds like mold. make sure it doesn't spread. if you see it start to happen to any new buds cut them as well. try to dry them as quick as possible to stop the mold from growing. Sorry-The House

yeah my vote goes to the catterpillars :mad: everyone i know has them right now

1st=off the bad parts

2nd=inspect part you cut off and look for the tiny green catterpillars if it has moved on you should still see the poop

3rd=once you have found at least one of them (to be sure its your problem) get some BT and spray it asap

safer has a BT product thats good from what i hear Safer Caterpillar Killer (http://plantitearth.com/store/product.asp?pid=154&catid=6)

You know, now that you guys say that...... It could be. I've only grown outdoors a few times and only had that happen once. I actually found the caterpillar after I dried the bud and went for a sample. :wtf: Good info on checking for the poop.:thumbsup: You could be right.- The House
