Foxtailing question

Is foxtails in late flower bad for the end product it seems to me it would add weight to the buds ? What are the pros and cons?

Heh heh, the foxtails are just bud, right? They don't hurt very much, and are hardly noticeable on the dried bud.

They grow because you are still feeding the plant, and she has stored nutes that she can use.

That's a new one on me.
How about some legitimate documentation?

You just saved me. I have a foxtail problem and I was supposed to Harvest today (Makes sense, I should have stopped feeding her 2 weeks ago).... I was thinking I was gonna feed her some more and maybe that will help lol. Newbie thinking more feed was gonna solve the problem. Thank You.

There's nothing to worry about.

In my experience it's not ever been feed related. It's always been caused by light intensity, heat or just the genetics of the plant.
Just don't let the foxtailing keep you from harvesting when the majority of the plant is ready.
Good luck friend!
