Finally closing in?

Hello.

Made a thread 2 weeks ago and things have been going forward. https://www.rollitup.org/t/foxtails-or-fattening-close-to-harvest-help-before-i-ruin-it.1095400/

Time has passed, things have gotten more and more swollen, growth, new pistils Ive lost count how many times it spurs out new ones.

I think it shows if comparing the pictures? Same angle of plant.

One bud has really faded fanleaves. Or is it just bad foxtailing keeping it from blooming out fully? Inexperienced in a good final harvest so very unsure.

You do have some foxtailing, so don't use those caylxes to judge ripeness. But you still have a fair amount of non-foxtailing white pistils, so a couple weeks or so. With the burnt sugar leaves keep an eye out for mold/rot.

i’d even pluck those sugar leaves from the stem as a whole without leaving anything behind because they are right in there staying always wet and they are dead. perfect breeding ground for mold.

I agree, plus some.
Where you see those brown/dead sugar leaves, remove them, open up the bud & check for rot.
If you find rot be aggressive in getting it out.

Good luck

Will do my best in plucking the leafs out, hopefully no mold yet.

What can cause foxtailing this late? Burn looks the same from a couple weeks ago? Light intensity or heat maybe?

Should the plant start to die when its due?
