Is this white shiny beautiful stuff on my leaves some kind if fungus or is it a good thing?

I was kinda laughing myself once I remembered the word Trichomes. I knew that’s what it was but when I googled why are my leaves turning white all my results were fungus, fungus, fungus and not a single Trichome. I do so hate Google when it’s like that. So how did your Harvest go? As of today I noticed that mine are no longer 1 little fluffy piece if popcorn at the tip of each branch, so now I am SUUUPER STOKED! Here’s an example…

Yeah, they’re going to swell up and should get real dense like a baseball bat kinda feel. Theres also a final swell during the last 2 weeks in flower. You can stop feeding nutrients around your 8th week or about 2 weeks before harvest. I did like you and hooked up my window AC unit to the intake on my tent and got some really nice colors. I got one that turn deep purple on the sugar leaves. Pretty cool…

Boi, I am all excited. Idk if I have any pretty colors, perse, but a couple of friends have mentioned how pretty my stalks are. They are striped purple/red and green. I read somewhere that red stems are bad but they don’t seem to be in my case. I got my tube and the end piece for 25¢ each at our local Bin Store. So I should then continue to give Nutes every time then? That sucks. I am 6 weeks into Flower and 3 weeks into ‘Full’ Flower. So I have what, like 5 weeks left, if that? And barely any Nutes left. I plan to do an Organic Grow next and shouldn’t need any Nutes.

I think red stalks/stems means a Magnesium abundance. Alot of it has to do with strain also. I have read where its said its not a good sign but i had red stems also. I think it means if the stalk is abnormally red…i could be wrong though.

Yeah, me too. Where they are so perfectly striped it has yo be natural. Certainly nothing wrong with my plants and they been that way all along.
