postmandave Reviewed by postmandave on 06-09-2006. strangely formed buds my plants are at 5 weeks 12/12. they are NLxBB, I recently switched from a 250 hps (what I used to use) -400 hps/MH for this grow. I am growing in a 1 m square grow tent and using bio bloom 2.5-6.5-3 or something close to that. the light has been no more than 12 inches away at any time and is generally closer. most of the buds are coming along nicely...but on one of the plant the buds are looking strange. look at the pics below (2 are normal 1 is wierd). this hasn't happened to me before now Rating: 5

Don't you guys think it could be a pheno type thing.
Maybe that plant takes after the Thai in the BB and the NL.

It is caused by too much nitrogen during flowering or sometimes superthrive during flowering will do that also. I had the same problem a while back I picked up some cha ching and used it a week early and the streched like 4-5 inches as long as it isn't too close to the end of harvest the will fill in some. This pic is near the end were they had filled in some

Damn that pictures hawt lol, how many plants were you growing in that picture?

I dont subscribe to the too much nitrogen theory as the cause.

On many plants, you will have both fat and thin bud tops.

I do however think that SuperThrive in the flower period is a culprit however. Too much of even good things can be bad.

Odds are, its the strain and thats just the way some of them work out.
