It's been 15 days since I switched the light to 12 12 and nothing different w the grow has no signs of budding what's wrong Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk
Post pictures if you can but some strains take longer give it another week or so at least. my grow journal https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1422221/
Your plants for sure should have nearly doubled in height at this point. Id wager you have a light leak. You won't start seeing real bud development until like week 3 or 4 and they won't get fat for another month after that
It takes time have you checked for preflowers? And is it getting constant darkness during the 12 hours? https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1426860/
And flowering with a MH isn't that great of a choice Hps has the right spectrum for flowering I'd definitely spend the change to get a hps bulb https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1426860/
Hey robbie thanks fir the response I've been looking for preflowers and nothing. ..it's in a grow tent in a spare room closet so it's cycle is constant. .. here's two factors I think might be hindering flowering. .. -I'm still trimming leaves when it gets too bushy -I'm using advanced nutrients You think any of this is culprit Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk
Definitely quit trimming you should of stopped doing that before you flipped the lights your stressing it (just tuck the leaves under). If you're still using MH HID lights (saw an old post you made) you really do need to switch to His. MH are great for veg but not so great for flower they just don't put out the right spectrum of lights. https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1426860/
If you could take a pic when the lights are on we could tell you more.... A close up on the main branch and a pic of the entire plant would be great otherwise Idk if it needs the nutes or not because Idk what it looks like. But make sure your nutes don't have nitrogen in them or a very small amount because it doesn't need nitro anymore. But it does seem like it would of shown preflowers already which is why I wanted a few close ups of the main branch https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1426860/
For sure I'll get some pics in tonight and yeah I thought maybe the trimming was doing it too should I low stress train them with string to even out light or is that bad too and I'm using a 600 mars led Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk
Really should of done that before the switch. I wouldn't just because your growth is already going so slow it could slow it even more I'd just tuck the leaves for now and next grow you should definitely tie the branches down in veg. My grows in the link below if you want to check it out. I just flipped mine to 12/12 a couple days ago I'm still waiting for preflowers too haha I vegged mine for 2 long months though. https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1426860/
I have an intake no exhaust, the led is really cool no heat Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk
Man I'm high lol that should be fine then and nice led man haha I just got the 300 for now if my plant ends up female I'll be getting a second 300 myself.... But man your plants probably fine just needs more time like dank said and pictures would tell us a lot more if you did want to be sure. Just when you can haha https://forum.grasscity.com/index.php?threads/1426860/
What strain(s) you running? dont know if you posted that already or if i didnt read it lol. Could aload of factors. A picture can tell a 1000 words brother. Either way, looks like you have all the help you need to get back on track. First grow?
Hey fellow green thumbs I figured it out, a big tweak on my end my timer was going on for a half hour in the dark cycle smh Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk
