Grow Mediums AKsteel's First DWC, Mephisto Mystery Seed

[AKsteel]

One of my first autoflowers was a Short Stuff seeds Pink Grapefruit. Foxtailed just like that if not worse. She was super sticky though.

This plant is crazy frosty. Trichomes are covering everything and she smells incredible. So do I continue to feed her as I have been or should I change anything?

I tend to believe it is nothing you have done as a grower to cause the Foxtailing. At this level of foxtailing she won't just stop and start forming solid colas that's the sad part. It will be a major pain in the ass to harvest given her size. Keep an eye of the trichromes like you would any other plant and harvest at you normal amber levels is how I would handle it.

I have never seen foxtailing before but I am pretty sure thats whats happening. All the branches and bud sites are like this over the entire plant. @mephisto have you ever seen this from a HBBSS? Has anyone seen an entire plant foxtail like this before and what should I expect or do? Besides a small cal/mag deficiency that was caught and fixed early she is in perfect health. She is really old for an auto flower (day 75 or so) but she shows no signs of wanting to finish. Will these buds stack up? Any ideas or comments would be much appreciated.
Temps=75f
Ph=5.9
RH=30%
PPM=1300 with no burning and nice green leaves

Holy Crap

I really don't know what I'm talking about but maybe it's too much nitrogen? your leaves look very dark to me.

Possible. I did back off on base nutes but increased P&K. We will see what happens

Not much to report. Whole plant is foxtailing and I am hoping for the best. Got more pistils showing up and she may fill out but I don't know. Worse case scenario is it will make for lots of frosty trim for concentrates.

throw a bit more cal/mag at it AKsteel! She looks like she wants it!

It's to bad we live in a world where a guy can't jump on a plane( with fly rods and gear of course) and help a guy trim all that up. Because it will take a week to trim up that monster...love it!
