Early tricomes

Holeleeshet said:

My dragons breath is only in week 3 of flower and still has popcorn nuggets that aren’t thickening. There over quantities make up for bigger buds so weight isn’t gonna be an issue because I’m averaging more with smaller buds. Plus I’m only at week three and I heard dragons b takes 14 weeks of flower usually. I’m just trying to figure out if it’s possible for tricomes to start appearing and be present at week three of flower. I still have between nine and 11 weeks to go and seeing how they are tiny mushrooms makes me wonder if that’s going to cause me a problem being on some of the buds as early as they are. It looks like somebody just sprinkled sugar all over the leaves and the bud I’ve never had a plant tricome this early. Is this normal or do I have a problem

Sorry but I think you're gonna have way too many trichomes by the time it's done... :/

I've never heard of too many tricoms being a problem. Usually if you get a ton they stack up like rails.

Technically the tri combs are tiny mushrooms which means it also includes fungus.

I’m not worried about there being too many tricomes. They can resin that sticky icky all they want. I’m more worried that the try combs are appearing on week three of flower instead of week 8 or nine like they usually do. Ive seen some at week six sometimes on auto flower. Technically the tri combs are tiny mushrooms which means it also includes fungus. Making me think that there is too much moisture in my tent even though the temps and pH levels are OK. I’m just scared that if I’m seeing them this early come harvest it’ll cause me problems with bud rot or mold if that makes sense. Here’s the lady.

I know that there classified as hairs. But I had wise old hippies who told me and said noones really done the science when I was stoned and I got me thinking. They shape just like mushrooms and cloud up . And only females are technically medanical. What if the hairs from the flower make the tricomes appear on the hairs. It is from mysterious shit right there. Like a microscopic shroom.

Trichomes are a defense mechanism for the plant... it’s odd they’re coming this early but equally concerning your hairs are turning orange so early.

Any details? What’s the temperature?

She's definitely got a long time to go..but That's not much frost at all, odd question on a plant that has almost zero frost. Id be more concerned about those pistils browning up..any chance she got some pollen?

There’s No pollen there’s just tricomes on some of the buds at week 3 and a lot of red hairs. I looked up the strain and it said the hairs will eventually turn almost blood red when she’s done. Cant wait to see em.
