You’ll notice in crops pith autolysis is more of a brown necrotic condition. It doesn’t look healthy, it looks diseased. My hollow stems are white and perfect circles. You really only see it on new growth, main stems, usually seed plants. Over time they harden up and fill in. More common on fast growing stretchy plants, it doesn’t happen on slower growing, thicker broadleaf plants.
During rapid stretch phase in flower most plants’ new growth will be temporarily hollow, IME.
