Okay so I've been having some issues with my outdoor and I can't seem to find any help anywhere I search so someone said to try here as this site has the best of the best at everything with grows ....so the problem is this ... Most of my plants are doing this like wierd thing with the flower process almost like the new buds (1-2 weeks of flower) are riping or something along those lines instantly instead of growing bigger with white hairs ...the hairs are red/brown and the buds are small and look dry/done I guess ..... Now the crazy part is that it's happening on all my strains and all the top buds and tops of all are fine with white hairs and looking normal but mainly the bottoms and middle area .... I also have some leafs curling kinda thing going on on some but a friend said that might be just from the heat ... As soon as I figue out how to add pics of this to this thread I will.. And someone thought maybe it was a nutrient problem like too much but I don't see any big signs of nutrient signs in the leafs at all really plus I did same stuff last year with no problem ... PLEASE HELP .

have you scoped for broad mites?
There isn't much bug damage going on ... I've had a little here and there but I've been in control of the bugs .... Still how could or would have mites or thripes caused the actual buds to ripen like symptom in week 2 of flower .... The picture with white hairs on it is how all the buds are supposed to look as of now but instead there like tiny with red hairs and no new bud growth looking at all on the bottom/middle stuff ... ???

the broad mites are microscopic so you can't see them without a good scope plus they will turn the hairs brown. someone I know recently used Abamectin but I'm not sure if you can do that in flower at your stage. I will have to ask him.
if its broad mites I doubt its worth even expecting a harvest.

Broad mites. abamectin is what I used. Some abamectin products are labeled for use up to 10 days before harest on vegetables, but you do wash vegetables. I dunno when you'd want to cut it off in flower, but I think you could hit them early. It takes a bit for them to recover from the BM damage though, so as others have said you may not want to expect much. avid is the major brand name abamectin product out there, though qualipro is the same concentration and 1/4 the price. Qualipro worked for me in veg.

Some people wash their buds at chop time to improve flavor. Others say it ruins tricks and promotes mold. There's recipes for the wash online.

So I've read at least 30+ different peoples issues with these broad mites and stuff similar and 80% of the people that had multiple run ins with the broad mites say they nuke Em is by far the best stuff possible it is expensive tho ... I've recently ordered it and am waiting to receive it I'm instantly going to take action on killing them and staying on top if it hoping for the heat results possible .... Thank everyone that helped with this situation I'm having ... Hopefully it turns out good ..

I used Nuke Em to treat what I thought was broadmites. I followed the directions for broad mite application and I FRIED my plants so just be carful.
I'm sure you'll get it all sorted, lookin for a smoke report too...welcome!!

No one I know has had success with Nuke em. Seems like $nake oil to me. 2 grams of citric acid and 3/4lb of brewers yeast shouldn't cost $55 mixed into a gallons of water.
Good luck though! If it does work, let us know!
yea true u dont know me...
I have used nukem and eradicated broadmites, pulled a harvest off plants that pre nukem looked just like op's.. and just looked fucked ...
also killed tons of plant by using nukem at the recommended dose, shocked they would do that.. it will kill your plants, guaranteed!!!
4 oz a gallon is gonna destroy everything, including plants!!
1 oz a gal everyday till they were gone, amazing!! good price at that rate too, I still have some bm's are gone though..
I also alternate morn/night with 70% neem , also called triple action neem
