oscars nft made the livers foxtail like mad though in coco it wasn't the same. no idea why tho
I do have a theory on this but its probably wrong lol

When growing brussel sprouts and broccoli the denseness of the soil/how much the soil compacts and puts pressure on the roots etc determines the density of the fruit/bud whatever ya wanna call it, more the soil compacts the roots then the denser the sprout/broccoli head, maybe its something similar, certain growing systems put different pressures on the roots etc

theres no pressure on the roots unless its walked on....the roots expand using hydrostatic forces, I think its the less o2 in compact soil mebbe

I've been thinking about it and I don't think it's cold anymore, I didn't really at the time but it was a factor that has to be considered.

Honestly I think it's a natural delay in the build up of auxin's that induce flowering.
Photo period plants flower in response to the build up of auxins (hormones), auxin production is stimulated by the dependent light cycle.
I think that as these plants haven't had an apical tip since the beginning and now they're huge and perfectly flat (underneath the canopy at branch level), the auxins have taken that long to build to a level that will induce flowering.

The same story with an autoflowering plant and you wouldn't be able to just hang on till the end regardless as the plant would keel over and die on you in proportion to physical age in light cycles.

Seems legit to me.




Time will tell how these turn out, interesting from now on though at 9 weeks.
no way cant with this at all.....unless you gave them no time what so ever to recover e.g cut aptip the same day 12/12.....3 days is long enough for auxins to build back up to acceptable levels and a week is said to be best.....

how old is the 400w bulb my 600w stretch the fuck outa plants (the ones that egal eye ic said were stretched (yes you was right lol) ) the bulb died soon after.....

so could that be a possible cause the vulbs nearly dead??

It's not cold now.

It was only ever cold for 3 weeks tops and that wasn't really cold as like I say lights off was during the day, not even cold enough to see my breath.

5.
3 weeks of cold on an 8 week strain is like half its life in the cold.....

if it was the first 3 weeks when the plant is setting up the buds, no wonder there in truble that's the most critical point in flower Imo.....

i would say an environmental problem still.

would also explanie why yours looks diff to every one elses as ....pheno type is dependent on environment....

(by this im referring to the argument zedd was having the other day, two cuts taken from the same mom will appear as completely different looking if grown in completely diff enviroments)

Probably should have explained it better lol.....

Long story short, brussels and broccoli grow tighter flowers/buds/heads whatever you wanna call em when they are in a heavier clayier soil, something to do with the density of the soil putting pressure on/inhibiting the roots ability to push thru the soil so easily, because the roots have to use extra effort and are always fighting this somehow increases the density of the part flowering

basically heavy,clay soil= very tight hard buds/flowers lighter non clayy soil - lighter less compact

And this was direct from the mouth of Peter seabrook the gardening expert who has the feature in the sun n other places, got chatting to him at a country show/farmers show thing a few years ago
