Help: buds not fattening

[Mayne]

small buds in hydro? Evidently, you cant let coco/hydro dry out, because in hydro, the plant survives on O2. In soil, its a totally different diet needed for survival.

I use cocoloco, its a coco/peat mix. Hydro, but not hydro,lol..

you DWC or coco medium based?

if your buds are small in hydro, its most likely, A-lockout,,,,,B-Lack of nutes,,,,, C-Bad VPD,,,, D-Lack of photons,, E-Water Temp

Whats your trichomes look like? iv got 4 plants in at the moment in nearly 8 weeks flower, they look rusty there is that many brown hairs but the trichs are all still clear.

 

[Mayne]

lol, rusty, I know what you mean man,

thats funny, I was looking at mine today, and thought, "rusty" myself,lol

 

[HigherTheHigh]

Its the only way i can explain them pushing they feel like conkers and there getting another 10-15 days so they better give me some amber .

 

[Mayne]

lol, i hear ya,.. You start flushing yet i hope?

Some dont even cloudy, believe it or not.

 

[HigherTheHigh]

Will start a flush in around 5 days time or when ever the 30L tank of nutes has ran out, some of the buds have been heat stressed which is a shame, iv got another 7 to go in straight after soo.

Yeah iv heard some people say they've had indicas go past 10 weeks with clear, its crazy, im trying a new strain called Big Nugs by Seedsman, only takes 6-7 weeks and is a great yielder apparently so thats next!

Yellowing leaves are normal during the later stages of flowering. Your plant is dying. It is suppose to be dying.
Focus on the basics. Plenty of air. Not too much humidity. As mentioned above let the pots dry out before re-watering. Prune the dead leaves. Make sure as much of your buds are in the footprint of light as possible.

Have you noticed any pests? Some of your leaves look nibbled on.

The leaves are now facing down, gave them 4ltrs of water 2 days ago and I'm unsure if I should water them every 2 days from now on or if I should keep them at their current schedule every 3 days

Can I get any of you guys to check out my journal? I'm apparently week 9 but my buds are nowhere near anyone elses at this stage, infact I can't say there's any bud at all... I'm trying to figure out do I keep feeding week 9 nutes for say another 2 weeks then jump to week 10 or just keep going through the whole cycle? It's my first grow and they got stunted hard in the first few weeks and now I'm in the later stages and idk maybe my expectations are way off and I'm not actually in week 9 maybe they're still in 7? Any help would be greatly appreciated thanks.

I checked out your Journal- Your plants appear to have just started flowering (a few weeks ago?),so it's going to be awhile before the buds fatten up-it looks like they've got 6 or 7 weeks to go...
How long since you flipped to 12/12?

 

[thisismyfirsttime]

theyre autos iv kept them on 18/6 for the first few weeks then i ran into problems as seen in the journal so my hydro shop guy told me chuck them outside and feed them nutes for a few weeks and see if they thrive then chuck them in the tent on a 20/4 ratio and they shot up but seems to have stalled. by my count i should be week 9 on all of them but i got two sitting about 47cms and one sitting at 87 all planted around the same time, the tallest one nearly died at the start but now seems the most progressed.

They are probably just done stretching,so they shouldn't get much taller-now you just need to wait for the buds to develop-they're starting off good,so you should have some nice fat buds by the time they're done.
The light timimg won't affect autos at all, so you can set the lights to whatever you want-I go 19/5 with autos

i thought they stretched in the dark, the plant is too tall for the tent and the top leaves are starting to curl inwards and im having trouble keeping it down so until i get them in the new one today i dropped the light spectrum from 100 to 75 in the red spectrum i kept the white and blue at 100 as specified from viperspectra.

as for the two small ones apparently theyre suppose to be between 75cms and 110 indoors. the tall one is the same as one of the small ones so im not sure why it isnt stretching?? i was going to put it outside in the sun and hope the natural light will fill it out a bit more but i wont need to when my tent gets here.

Different phenotypes of the same strain will grow differently-sometimes a lot differently-
So one of your plants is a short phenotype,and the other is a tall phenotype- they're like kids-the same parents can produce totally different offspring -the same thing happens with plants.

Be careful moving them outside-any pests they pick up outside will go back into the tent with them.

Very true, IV had alot of luck with that as IV had them outside a couple times in the sunlight to help with the growth in the younger stages and haven't had a pest yet.
