that's a nice looking stalk/stem...:thumbsup:

Go back to the beginning and tell what you did in the last 60? days

Looks like.. lack of light?...or lack of something?

I have a 430 watt HPS light. it's been under the HPS light for the last 55 days.
in the past i've had sucess with skunk/haze, california orange, & bubbleicious.
i've done nothing different . I water the plant with tiger bloom. This is my first white widow.there are two plants in the room about 4X4. one of the plants was a cutting that i put in to make sure it was female, that cutting grew and grew, over 5 feet now. I've never had this many buds on a plant before.

The problem you are going to have is the branches don't look like they'll be strong enough to hold the buds. My suggestion would be to increase airflow wherever your plants are growing. They don't look like they've encountered much air resistance, which is probably why they are so wispy. They spent too much time producing buds instead of building stem and branch strength.

You don't look more than 2 weeks into flowering, you've got 6-8 weeks left to get the branches bulked up and able to support the buds. Don't put the fan directly on them, but I'd make sure the leaves are moving slightly. If necessary, you can use stakes to support the branches the last couple of weeks. With some care, you could be looking at a ginormous harvest Good luck!
