Fluffy Buds

been growing in my greenhouse for a good few years now. For some reason my buds are fluffy.
Why?

try a different strain or different fertilizer....best of luck

I hear u brother, thanx for the advice!

What are your temps in the greenhouse when you are ripening (last 2 -3 weeks)?

How is the light transmission through the covering material. I had two greenhouses with solid walls and corrugated plastic on top.
The light was not strong enough to produce hard nugs. Took the plastic off and went to light dep. and now they are as good as my outdoor.

Not sure you are ripening now unless you use blackout curtains. But warm temps during the last 3 weeks will make fluffy buds. Keep the day temps around 75 F during the last 3 weeks for dense nugs. You get into the 80's and nug density evaporates.

if ya using the 6 ml from hardware stores ya losing half ya light.

To get dense nugs I dim my lights during the last few weeks. So I am not thinking it's light levels.

what ever u say bud.low light to much shade= fluffy buds outdoor!

I could see the buds being smaller but the density can still be achieved with cool temps IMO.

Well UV doesn't make for density, supposedly increases resin production. Anyways, I think he needs to focus on the temps to get density. For yields he would benefit from more light with better material as you have recommended. Either way, if he swaps the poly I think the buds will be bigger and still fluffy unless he can drop those daytime temps for the last couple weeks.

I flower plants all summer long out doors in the heat every one rock hard pushing 90 now.my depo buds kick ass on my indoor, bigger tighter more trics an zero on the power bill

Well shit! I can grow 2 pounds of pure fire a week with a couple flashlights and a some solo cups, key is you gotta have a garden gnome indoors, nobody know this. lol I would like to smoke your outdoor.

I have a small greenhouse located in the high desert temperatures 100 or less have zero affect on bud density

heres some of my depo still got couple weeks no fluff here30-40% more trics than most indoor.

Nice bud bro!

I guess since we are taking over the thread with our nonsense lol here is a nug shot at day 58 of 12/12, 5 days before harvest using a LED light, with no UV. Buds turned out like rocks.

not my nonsense all yours,talking about dimming lights,lowering temps,growing lbs in solo cups then showing indoor bud, the dude is outdoor under poly?i showed my depo bud to blowup the thought that rock hard bud cannot be grown in 90. plus heat I think u got more than pot in that pipe.
