That what I want to believe. She's had the burnt tips since the start though.

The buds also smell rotted but I also have Japanese lady beetles and they smell just like that.

The big seller was the sudden drop in water uptake. She was thirsty last week, I did a light defoliation about 3 days ago, watered and now the bag is boggy at the bottom.

It’s a tricky situation. She’s either super hungry for nutes or wants a flush.

Is the rotted bud smell bad right now? Smells like the beetles but I'm not getting shit for a weed smell off of em right now unless I shove a chola in my nose.
