Very Small buds !?

[stra8outtaWeed]

honestly your problem isnt the temp of your light. plants can grow in any kind of spectrum. its just that each color produces differently. old schoolers use to grow with 4ft cool white florescent bulbs. i noticed you didnt fill any ts form. that would help. but noticed your purple stems. that could be caused by a cold grow room. if the room is to cold it will hinder its growth.

i will agree that room temps could be a factor...but if you check the wavelengths of light that are used for a plant to make photosynthesis you cannot grow under any spectrum of light!!!! MJ happens to be a very hearty type of plant that can be grown under poor lighting....the better your light source the better product you will produce!

Very cool ! Thanks for all the info!

gotta give credit to personified...i copied and pasted the lumens explanation from a thread of his! :thumbsup:

your next grow will be better! :smokin:

Home depot sell a cfl that is 2600k 150 watt with high lumens. it is a big cfl get several with splitters might help. Plus no one ask what size pots they are in . If roots are root bound there will be minimal bud growth as well. they look ok other wise

Yeppers id like to know what size pot you have them in, because it sounds like you need a re-pot. My smallest plant in the smallest pot has the smallest buds. But, everything looked small to me with this being my 1st indoor grow. I am used to outdoor growing though. Nutes will help but start out with a low dose. At the same time if you are root bound the nutes arnt going to help ya. The plants look very nice :thumbsup:to bad your having a problem.

Good luck:rasta:

This site is Great everyone on here so willing to help :thumbsup:

Now as per pot she is in a 10 gallon so i know she has pleanty of room to grow.

Im going to rebuild her room and get more new lights for the next grow. I plan on growing about 2 plants under 6 300w cfls that they sell at homedepot. They are HUGE!

and possible some 150s running all sides, i want to make sure the new plants have better yeilds! I honestly think ill be luck to get 1/4 O from this plant ..

So if there is really not much more to be done with this lady should i harvest her and start again or let her keep growing ? also would it be bad to take one of the buds to see what type(sat/ind) of plant she is ?

Also what nutrients should i use on the next one ? I would like it if i could buy them local?

This plant isnt done yet, not even close. I dont see any signs that the buds are even starting to mature ( amber pistols etc etc). Its slow growing thats all. If you harvest her now all you will have is a bunch of undeveloped buds that will prolly just give you a headache. She looks very normal but given you have told us how old she is means she is just very slow at flowering. Give her time and she will grow more and more. My thought is she isnt getting enough light. i mean she is in a 10 gallon pot, and looks very healthy and green. Seems that light is your only area that needs improvement IMHO.

Looks very similar to yours right now.

when she is ripe she will look something like this.http://boards.cannabis.com/members/c...re-harvest.jpg
See the difference? and thats just in 3 weeks. Just give her sometime.

Just wanted to make sure about one thing here... you said it stopped growing? Do you possibly have any light leaks? Or are they getting total darkness for 12 hours?
