Hey AFN growmies, finally took some trich shots on my current grow and freaked out seeing what I first thought were webs, which sent me staring at my plant for 30 minutes looking for any pests. Unlike webs though you can’t see them without the magnification. Anyone seen trichomes sticking like this, is this just a gluey connection between?

No pests were found and these are on all the buds only on this plant, it’s indoor grow, and my Solo grow in the same tent right next to it has NONE of these. There’s a hair (lower right) in the first pic and one where you can see the loupe, but above the hair there’s some of the web-like projections.

That is one frosty bud!

I have seen so much resin on the trichomes that they merge and look like a piece of glazing from a glazed donut in spots!
 
@JaxsoNL5 That is new to me! Thanks for sharing.
 
Here’s her Solo cup sister (different breeder) that sits right next to the Blueberry auto, I didn’t see any of those thread like things

Really good point to raise @NAGreengo, but i’ve actually smacked around the Trizzlers (Solo cup from my most recent post) a heckuva lot more moving her around when I water or work on the Blueberry. The Blueberry has just been rotated in place on the pot riser and i’m pretty gentle with my plants otherwise.
 
Huh..... See if you can recreate it on a different part of the plant? Gently push a spot together and see if the strands are just sticky plant resins.

It’s on every bud I looked at on the Blueberry, even buds more “internal” that wouldn’t get knocked around or touched. The pics in the first post were two or three different buds, just the first and last pic in that post are the same bud.
 
I mean she is sticky AF (fan leaves stuck to my gloves when trimming) so i’m guessing they are just resin extensions between trichome heads as the flower expanded during budding?
