Mold?

[johnb1963]

Hello my Friends, I'm growing some Master Kush plants, that are just covered with trichomes. 2 weeks ago, I cut away some little nugs that where below the canopy. I hung them in a dark cool place, and forgot about them. so last night I get them out, and they are so frosty, like nothing I've seen before. I looked at them under my microscope, and it doesn't look like mold, but there so covered, I wanted to see what you guys think.

your all set mold white powdery will kinda glow to it nothing like those nugs

Johnny B, those are some beautiful looking trichomes. When they fill with THC, they look like little pieces of plastic. I wouldn't worry about mould... You'll usually find it inside your nugs not crystallized on the outside. Do you have a jewellers loop? You may want to invest in one, that way you can dial in the best day to harvest. Lots of info on this webpage.

I swing the string i hang them on alittle bit but mine hang in a bedroom with alot of air space. I also cut my bigger colas an stem down abit if they are big LOL big word here is IF really good job with that batch

lol guys, i'll let you know when I harvest and cure, then you can come on over and sample! I have a microscope to check the trichomes. the trick is trying to hold it still while taking the pics. these were taken 15 mins ago. I,m hoping by next weekend, i'll see about 20% amber.

LOL Now I think your just showing off. There's no mold there, just some yummy nugs! Great work. What are you growing?

[johnb1963]

thanks SwitchH2O, i'm growing 4 master kush from clones. It's been a difficult grow so my yield is low, but the buds are covered if frost! not sure what the problem was / is, but my leaves are turning yellow ish. My thoughts were cal/mag deficiency. Here is how they look right now.

[SwitchH2O]

Johnb1963...your leaves will turn that way at the end of flowering. It's not a deficiency. What day or week of flowering are you in. Your harvest date must be close? What nutrients are you using? You shouldn't be using Calcium, Magnesium or Nitrogen in your final weeks of flowering.

Hi switchH2O day 56. Only using ph 6.5 water for last 7 day. Was feeding with fox farm trio. Full strength every other watering.

I would expect to see exactly what you're posting if you're that far along and your in flush. Congrats. Read about how to dry and cure your weed. They have great stuff on this website.
