Stuck Buds in Limbo
okey we have all had them buds that should open but dont for some reason.. I help mine some when I find they have a mechanical issue like a curling edge holding back the lip or a petal thats in the wrong place being held back. Blooms open Im convinced bec they start to dry up. The buds are full of water when growing. When its time to open they start to dry out and thusly pulling together and in all the fibers that result in the bloom opening up.. I think its okey to help a bloom open. Im not going to perform surgery but its okey to squeeze them ever so slightly to get them to "pop". Agree? Disagree?
