Ziggys 2nd grow ...better but way thin (kinda anorexic...sniffle)

Zigmans at it again (still) .....HOT days in So Cal about now and locals tell me thats why only few of us grow indoors in the summer. My rooms are all set ... PLENTY of light and LOTS of heat, BUT fear not theres air cooled reflectors a 1st rate ventalation A/C and a dehumidifier. my RO filter is online and im using Dutch Masters complete line.

Yet alas with all that effort im still not getting that thick heavy resin sac filled chronic we all seek...i always thought that if i had the right stuff i could grow chronic from any seed but now i wonder. some say its the heat others say excessive humidity

Garden Gnome if your still there youve been with me since the beginning and now i really need your help (maybe i should sacrifice a bull or do you think a ram would be better??? and then theres that human thing...hmmmmmm). pics attached

How high did you have those lights off the tops of the plants?

Where you using super thrive in the flowering cycle?

Thats all I can think of right now.
Sorry to hear that.:confused:

Jdog...thank you for responding and your help is greatly apperciated.
a few months back i did have a problem with water that led to a toxic salt build-up at 1st i did think that maybe my lights were too close (i have always employed the "back of the hand" test even after this was ruled out i did raise the lights....then after employing the RO filter that problem went away - many thanks to Garden Gnome - see "HELP HYDRO GODS" in this forum).

in the veg cycle i did use NUTRIBOOST another kind of growth hormone but this was discontinued from the 7th week when DM potash was initiated per DM instructions and the photoperiod shortened to 12 hrs...the only other change was using a potash/silicone tank additive called PRO-GUARD and in the last 2 weeks NORTHERN LIGHTS FAT FLOWER this did get some results but with the DM series why would it be necessary to add anythingelse?

again many thanks if theres anythingelse you can think of please pass it on as the law here restricts the amount of medicinal cannabis and the # of plants i can have as a result i cant waste my time growing an inferior herb i must find a way to get that FAT THICK DENSE flower as its the ONLY thing that relives my pain...many thanks Jdog

More lights perhaps. How many watts you got going there?

A light leak can also affect your plants' ability to produce heavy dense tops.

hello stinky and thank you for the response

im sure lighting is not the issue (2k in a 9'x15' 2 600 and 2 400 ) lights are currently 1.5' - 2' over the canopy all are HORTILUX HPS lamps and im using ECONOCOOL air cooled fixtures. whats funny is my plants are like 3' - 4' tall and i still get good formation from top to bottom i just cant get that thick dense bud i need.

if theres anythingelse you can suggest please do as im in DIRE need.

many thanks

Maybe its the strian what are you growing?

hello berny and good of you to respond
as far as i can tell its some kinda skunk strain. unfortunately i havent the nerve to order from one of the seed houses.....partly from fear of the feds (although growing for medicinal purposes is lawful in Cal - buying and receiving seeds from overseas brokers is still a federal offense - so im kinda doin the "pot luck" thing) and then theres the rip-off factor im not sure of who i can trust. lol if you know of someplace that is dependable by all means let me know......
recently ive had it whispered to me that heat stress can cause the "whispy" bud thing any ideas?????

oh boy, check out that buds

hmmm.
Too hot in there?
BRoken dark period often.
Too much nutes.
To much salt build up(Needs a flush regularly)
Light leaks
These are all causes of the spindley weed.
How high off your plants was your light?

You live in Cali,right?
Where?
Near Bakersfield?
Maybe I could get you a good dense strain like Purple Cream.

Is it pre mature?
How long did you flower it?

I live where it is 105 degrees everyday.
And I got my growroom down to 78.
