Is it an Auto Flower? Or a Photo? What is your light schedule? Could it be reveging?
And I might be way off here, but by the picture, it looks a long way from being ready to harvest. Are the trichomes all cloudy with some amber? I’m pretty new to this as well, so I’m trying to learn as well. I’ll try to tag some more knowledgeable people for you.

It almost looks like a reveg or the ruderalis. Weird. I agree w/ needs more time. The bud pictured anyway.
I would check it in a couple weeks or so before harvesting. Maybe someone else will chime in.

The plant popped on oct 11 and it’s an auto
It’s being grown in a 4 x 4 tent with another auto OG Kush that popped around the same time grown with fox farm in parallel I also gave it bloom When it began to flower
I use a 5 gallon fabric pot. I have been pH in tapwater between six and 6.5 since the very beginning of the grow. I have used the CO2 bag. I’m using for lighting a spider farmer SF 1000. I have been keeping it under 24 hour lights since the beginning of thr grow. I have two isosceles fans in the tent. I have the system with the vent. I have a dehumidifier and a humidifier at the moment. I don’t have either in the tent because the temperature and the humidity is good. I check it consistently with meters I appreciate any feedback, but I’m a little confused because I didn’t think auto’s could revenge

Thank you I am in no rush to harvest at all. It’s just the little leaves that started to grow out of the main cola looks crazy to me lol

Looks funny, you’re right. Some kind of a mutation maybe?
Foxtailing has several reasons.
1 genetics. Autos foxtail more but any plant can do this.
Lights. To much to close without supportive nutes and environment will cause foxtailing but the reason seems to be unclear. More will be done on this issue at the university and comercial growers.
Stress. Any severe stress. Missing a night time on a photo in flower can cause weirdness. Reversing the hormone that causes flowering will cause hemi and reveg but from the information at university level this is hard to do. A glowing led from a in tent led on a humidifier does not have the energy to cause problems same as a pinhole in a tent. Leaving a large window open in a bright room may set it off…
This is not specific to cannabis. I have grown outdoors for many years and I have lost melons that dropped flowers due to a 4 day heavy cloud cover and storms that dropped DLI to 9 for 4 days. 1/2 the crop went down and they will not reflower.
Of course over the years birds have eaten more tops on melons then any storms. Crows can pretty much defeat any cage.
I shoot the buggers…

Also my first grow, but what’s the rest of it look like? Is what normal exactly? Best to be descriptive when asking questions so you can get the most accurate answer.
There is little leave growning out of the top cola I can give another picture and it’s an auto I don’t think it’s revegging

Ok someone check me. The photo with the nice leaf below the cola. Look at the new growth. It is not a flower.
Revenged is my guess…

@Kyanag_dagrower check your light schedule, check your timer. It may have been bumped and it’s failing
Looks like they are revegging. Make sure they’re only getting 12 hours of light.

I’m scratching my head too on this one.

the single leaf blade is my confirmation for re-vegging.
I am growing RQS auto Northern Lights you may want to drop the light schedule to 18/6. They still need a rest period.
