your post in the 600 about the strange growth. Have you figured out what it is? as i have the exact same thing going on with my russians. Although that pic is with a group of mature buds, was the growth from young flowering plant, or did it show up in later flower?
My 4 cloned white russians all exhibit the same growth on the main branch. Im thinking it was due to me not flushing when I thought i had before flowering. 2 weeks into flower i flushed, to my horror, my run off ppm was 1700+! so ive come to conclude, either slow flower start from too much nitrogen, or lock out due to excess salt. Please hit me back... thx, dangledo
