Still white pistils, need more time
Is time to feed bloom

Happy growing :green_heart::christmas_tree::+1:

It’s an Auto, and I have already harvested and in the curing proc. 3 others that were planted at the same time. Planted beginning Nov. just harvested 5 more that were planted mid Dec.

So this is very weird.
My only guess is some sorta mutation or ruderalis trait preventing trichome production :thinking:
And that is just a guess my friend.
But ivam definitely following this thread.

Im curious, what does it smell like and is it sticky at all if you mess with it any?

Slightly sticky and smells a clean lemony fragrance.

and I do literally mean a clean fresh smell, not at all like any other.

So I’ve been searching the internet and there is a few samples of others but no real answers of whats going on. I cant seem to find any “known” genetic mutations that cause this.
90days is a good bit of time and it looks healthy and massive.
Theres really no trichomes at all even under magnification?

Once upon a time, I trimmed many many white hairs for a single glass-pipe hit.
ENJOYED THEM

A few here and there, they look like pimples on a leaf.

Some just take longer. Still a ways out. 90 days counting from first sign of change probably should be 3 weeks less.more like 75. I have an Amnesia auto still weeks away. 2 of 4 diff strains chopped planted same day. 1 of my lemon down…other lemon slow and still up. 2 weeks so far. She has another week. If no trichs when hairs browning i would go hmmmm.

That’s going to be a bad buzz, heart racing and paranoid from immature buds. That had at least 2-3 weeks left. :love_you_gesture:

@OGIncognito
I may be wrong but i think he said he harvested a few others that was started with and after it, but i dont think he has harvested the one in question yet.

A misplaced period kind breaks up the flow and kinda makes it seem like he harvested this one.
But if you read it over looking the period, it reads a little differently and flows better…

@rjsr4111 can clarify for us though…

Have you choped this one or is it still growing?

No i have not chopped it yet, still growing with white pistils. And that is correct on the fact that 8 plants have been harvested since the birth of this one, planted 4, 3 are in the curing process that were planted at the same time.

@rjsr4111 Since you said it was slightly sticky, that means you DO have trichomes and here is the proof.

Look closely at the 2 red circles. Trichomes everywhere. Especially the bottom circle. Its just getting started. Congrats…:+1::+1::+1:

Good eye @MrPeat.

@rjsr4111 you are officially trichome positive. No need for PCR test. Ha

What is the correct growing term ?

Pistil is the white hair. It comes up out of the calyx. Becomes a bract if the pistil gets pollinated.

What do you think? Found this…

Rare mutations can cause an auto to act weird and show traits of a photoperiod. This is why some people say if your auto isn’t flowering just flip to 12/12 and see how she reacts. Sometimes it just takes a few days to kick her into the flowering period, sometimes it’ll require 12/12 throughout the entire period.

An auto is created by crossing with a photoperiod with a ruderalis, so it’s natural to have these rare mutations that can cause the plant to lean on traits of a photoperiod rather than the intended ruderalis trait (time in the sun), however there’s definitely more going on here lol…
