LOL! Yup, the stigma is the actual little white hairs, which are protruding from the pistils (the entire flowering bud). They are actually what receive the pollen when pollenating for seeds. I can be a stickler when it comes to referencing specifics sometimes! You\'re right though, simplification is best...I\'ll now refer to them as white hairs, and red hairs! Oh, and you\'re also right about \'stigmata\' being religious. Supposedly, it\'s a phenomena where a person mysteriously develops the wounds of Christ...but many times is actually just the person harming themselves in order to get attention. Kinda sad.

Watch out using the product "gravity" from humbolt county. Dont use it too much or your buds will be so dense they suk and you can bounce them off the ground. Too much and youll ruin your crop, trust me. If you use it Id use half what the bottle says.
Your buds are only half done so wait 3-4 weeks or so and then youll see how much they will be swollen up. Dont just cut them cause they stink I know lots that learn the hard way and smoke crap, and cutt off all the lower branches that dont have much growth early so the other branches can take up all their energy.

I'm new to growing, 1st time as said, and when you see them they look like they are perfectly designed for exactly that because of the way they come out and are sticky. You can really see why it is so important to get the males out.
I think water Ph and type of water supply, and a healthy strong strain, and cannabis.com are the key factors by far because I have had virtually a problem free first grow of multiple plants that have been stressed several times, light issues, and ended up with 5 out of 8 better then 50/50, and big beautiful healthy females. And I do not have a green thumb just all the help from stinkyattic and others on here, great seed, in ph'ed well water so there is little I have to do but ask for help when I need it and give help when I can help.
Sorry if this doesn't make sense or is rambling I am REALLY HIGH:bigsmoke:
