Light bleaching? Plant shows a lot of heat stress as well.
How close to how many watts?

That bud is crazy close to that much light! Leaves canoe (curl) trying to escape from heat. Myself is no master gardener but I doubt a plant that close to a light of that strength even with proper water, nutrients and environment stands a chance.

I'm no master Gardner nor profess in anyway I just wanna learn and that's taking on as much info as I can good or negative.
4th grow now over 16 months never had an issue in terms of light stress or bleaching.
Once had thrips and a small amount of mould which was nipped in the bud the next time round with bigger fans to distribute air flow along with a dehumidifier.

Thankyou I think tomorrow morning I'll reduce the power to about 75%. I've just read with the bleaching it can take the potency to basically nothing
Thankfully it's only on 3 buds outta a hell of a lot with in the room

The overabundance of light is causing the bleached look areas and light/heat is causing the leaves looking sad and curled upward. You can still totally smoke it but the more stressed out it gets the less potent it will be and it will mark it harder to finish unless you do something about it. I'm not seeing anything that looks like mold from what I can see.

Thankyou for your reply, do you think reducing light to 75% would help during the finish of these in the next 3 weeks?

That really depends. Personally tend to blend my plant or adjust lighting. Is it the 3 buds I've highlighted here? The leaves look pretty crispy on those buds but how does the rest of the plant like the light level? You don't want to neglect the rest of the plant to save those 3 buds.
If the plant seems like it's being blasted I'd turn it down for sure but if it's just those high upper buds I'd probably come up with a way to get them away from the light or out of the direct beam of the light.

You could always bend the flower over if its flexible enough. Other flowers aren't nearly as bad but backing off might not be the worst but 25% sound pretty extreme. Do you run Co2? Again I'm not a master gardener and like you have a few grows indoors and out under the belt and still trying to learn. Many folks here with way more knowledge and I feel lucky to gleam the info I have from hanging out.
