I have a quick question. I have checked my trichomes and I see the majority of these baby's aren't ready. But the plant \ bud seems to be getting thrashed by the sun . When I come out here I see dried up pieces of plant. It's been 100+ here in Cali. I have no screen nothing protecting them full on sun can someone give me some advice

@FresnoFarmer uses shadecloth he gets from walmart, you could make a frame from pvc pipe and spread some of the cloth over it.

Shade cloth will work to relieve them of heat stress. But theres gotta be something else going on here at the root zone, or pests. My plants only showed signs of heat stress if they get nute burnt, underwatered, or root pests. What size containers they in? Are you watering correctly?

The smaller pic looks like the tip was bit off. Im thinking caterpillars/bud worms maybe

Also you might have spidermites or aphids. I see white dots near the veins on some leaves.

I could be wrong but looks to be a little bud rot here. But like I said I could be wrong.

I'm in the same boat as you are I've been getting a hundred degree weather for the last couple weeks but as long as you keep them hydrated there's no need for shade cloth or anything really I got a few burn leaves from the Heat I forgot to water one morning. If you water regularly and still get the bud rot look you might have some caterpillars

I water once per day should I be watering once in the morning and once at night? Would both waterings have to be a heavy watering

Yeah same happened to me and one of my top buds dried right out. Read that we should start pulling the parts that are turning colour and crispy but I left mine.....screw it she smokes alright besides being slightly harsh.

Not gonna lie I pull off the crispy buds and smoke em too. I really don't want to have to put those cloths over it. I think the heat is dieing down this week so I will keep everyone updated thanks for the tips and the help fellas.
