my plants won't budd!

I have 4 plants groin a aerogarden 6 and I've been trying to force flower them but no buds.It's the 4th week into flowerin and the clone I had taken off of my plant I planted it outside. I'm not even tryin to flower my clone but it already has buds. Is the problem with the roots in the aerogarden? Or what? Please help I don't know if my plants are even going to ever budd!!!!!!!!!

what kind of MJ are you growing?

what is your lighting scedual?

The clone outside has buds ? Where are you keeping the areo ? More info more help.

The only thing I can think of is light leak or light timing. 12 hours of darkness is the only key to flowering.

I am planning to do an areo garden grow as well. Its nice and clean and looks pretty easy.

I have grown before iwth coco and soil in a cabinet and it went well but it was alot of work sometimes.

I understand that the areo garden isn't totally ideal but im looking for somthing simple and small. So im gonna give it a go. Is it loud? I imagine that I will hear the sound of dripping water constantly correct? I am gonna add a bit of side lighting to my Cab seeing as I have all my old stuff from my old grow boxes.

As for your plants it must be the light. Or your conditions. Are you sure your areo garden has a Soft light in it for flowering? Rember with fluros Cold light for growing and soft for flowering. I'd bet that the areo garden come with full spectrum so you should be good. Its gotta be the light or condidtions. Temps do a double check of everything.

REALLY????:wtf: REEEALLLLY? :wtf:

Allright...here we go.

1.) What nutrients are you using in your aerogarden?
2.) What is your lighting schedule?
3.) What strain are you growing?
4.) How old are your plants? how long in veg? How long in flower?
5.) What are you growing from? Seed?
6.) How powerful is the aerogarden light?

And after you answer these honestly...I would fill out the form! Then you might get some answers. Those who provide no information, get no answers.:jointsmile:

I am having the same problem, im 12 days into Flowering & nothing so far :(

Although I have these weird growths starting (3 days into Flowering Cycle) on one side of my nodes not both & they have barely grown at all. They look like New Growth even though there is already a branch.

I think I have a High Sativa strain but not really sure, the plant doesn't have an Xmas Tree Shape & it grows fast with long thin leaves bigger then my hand.

-Im using 15-30-15 Nutrients with Micro Nutrients.
-I had my plant on a 12/12 but read that Sativas may need longer nights so im on a 11(light)/13(dark).
-Strain Unknown
-My plant is 9 weeks old in 2 days.
-Im growing from seed
-My lights are 2/250W White Fluorescents with 1/20W Grow Light.

I just hope I don't have a light leak... but then what are these weird growths? & why are they only on one side of my plant?

need pictures if possible...but how did you start you seed? more importantly how much light did it start with?

i am guessing you have a male but w/o picutres i can't say for certain!

the way you start your seed is very important...12/14 hours max during the first 3-4 weeks then gradually increase the light by an hour every week until you get to 18 on 6 off then when you cut the light back 12 hours they usually show sex fairly quickly!:thumbsup:

this should be done with femmed seeds as well....i see way too many folks here complain about hermies and when you blast a seed with 18 or more hours of light right out of the shoot it thinks it is summer and will grow fast to tower over the girls so their flowers will pollinate the girls!

I learned this from being taught how to grow by a very reputable breeder and it is confirmed in the MMJ Bible by Jorge as well!:D

then you will have stable strains to take cuts from and minimizing herms!:smokin:

If I had a camera with a good enough macro I would take a pic. But I will see what I can do tomorrow.

Well like most Noobs its a trial & error thing. I set my lighting on 24 hour lighting until it was 4 weeks then I transferred it into an 18/6 for 2 weeks then went to a 12/12.

Honestly I wouldn't be upset if it did Hermie, then I can understand how both sexes produce. But like all growers I want a full Female.

This is just my first grow & im more curious about its life cycles to understand better for when I start making a true SOG.



-So you say a grower should start there plants on a 12/12 then gradually move up to a 18/6 until you want to start flowering at 12/12? Ill remember that.

-Also, why am I getting these growths only on one side of node intersections, is that normal? & why have they not developed in over 8 days?


Sorry... im a noob at this & im just concerned for my little baby.

hey stinky~check my bottom link it a copy out of Jorge's book detailing exactly how to get more females from seed:thumbsup:

without seeing a picture it is hard to say but sometimes they will show sex in different places along the plant as they develop!

you won't learn if you don't make a few mistakes so don't worry...you might look around the site to see if you can find any picture of others that may be similar to yours...do a search for male plants...herms...and female so you can see what all 3 definatly look like!:jointsmile:

othar than that we can wait for a photo and you will get more input that way also....hope this helps!:hippy::hippy:
