smoking and usage

sway23 · #1 (**permalink**) 07-04-2008, 06:13 AM

When I look around at most other flowering pics at around 35 days, they all look like they have giant buds everywhere. My white widows at 35 days look like they're still puny in comparison. Granted, I'm using CFLs, but I have quite a few of them and have them pretty close to the plants (between 1-3 inches).

So, are my plants behind? Am I doing something wrong? Or should they start filling in soon?

How long were they in veg lighting, your right they do look small for 5 weeks of flowering... from what I see in the pics anyway.

I think the nuggets should be a lot bigger, try trimming the big fan leaves off to help promote bud growth, what I was taught is that the plant should have to survive and grow from the photosynthesis from the bud of the plant., therefore making the buds bigger, and stronger.

i'd guess they're not getting enough light, or enough of the right kind of light. What color spectrum CFL's are you using? how many watts? how many plants?

or is it possible there's a light leak in their 12 hrs of darkness?

Its due to your lights, they look good for the types of lights that your using. They will start to fill out in probably like 2-3 weeks, dont worry they will turrn out just fine. But please what ever you do DON"T CUT OFF YOUR FAN LEAVES... This is stored energy that has been saved for later in flowering, if you need to bend them down away from bud sites so they get light this is fine but dont listen to Sage of Silvia and cut them off he is totally wrong, and doesnt know what he is talking about and giving you bad advice.
