A month of flowering very little bud

dude i hate to break it to you but you have some deficencies and your plants are not mature enough to bud... in a healthy manner at least

what types of lights are those?

see my avatar.. thats my plant after 2 weeks, looks like yours do now

they are 4 26 watt soft white flourescent and 2 42 watt soft white flourescent, These plants have been flowering for about a month and a half, they started 12/12 from seed as I have time constraints, also those lights are the best I could afford, I am using flowering nutes but only started about 2 weeks ago, they are the nutes in the picture other than that they have had no other nutes except for a tiny bit of miracle grow about a month ago, so this is where its at, do you think they will fill out with bud? what should I do

yeah I can't help that because I didn't veg, but what is there should still fill out with SOME bud right?, they are like a foot tall now or more for one plant

i think if they do it will be a very small amount of bud... you need more light for sure.. with all the money for the lights housings you could of bought a 150 watt hps which would produce far greater results.... All I can tell you is either double the light that you have with cfls or buy a hps, which is what i would recommend... honsetly if i was you id get a hps and start over.. but thats just my opinion

also the brown top in one of those pictures didn't get brown until AFTER I fed it with those nutes it happened like two days later, and those nutes are recommended for flowering cannabis

i think you can still get some bud if you get some lights

You are giving them 12 hours of light and 12 hours of complete uninterupted darkness each day right? It doesn't look very "light proof" in there.

they are too small to be give nutes at this point, man u really need to up the lighting!! how big are your pots?

true, you need to make sure its completely dark for the full 12 hours

and just so you understand, you have about 1/4 the recommended lighting you need

first of all I can't start over this is my only chance to grow, one of those pics you can see the buds that are growing like I said they are the pointy things, and what you are calling "light hoods" are ballasts I need them on the light to hold it up it has the clip that allows me to place my lights in position without those "hoods' I wouldn't be able to use the lights in the first place and the whole thing cost me about 50 bucks for the lights and ballasts( what your saying are light hoods) that hold them in place, I need to know what to do about the leaf browning should I flush them with water and stop feeding those nutes, switch nutes, or should I just give it more time and hope more bud grows in, I'm not going to be able to add more light that is the max I can fit and afford.

yes I am giving it 12 hours of darkness because they are in a bathroom and at the 12 hour dark period the door is closed completely and all lights are off

yeah I know for sure I cannot add any light, I have exhausted all budget remaining for this project it will have to continue without any added lights

lol i never once called them "light hoods" i said "light housing" damn dude calm down im telling you what you need and sure flush it not that it matters anyways...

you want me to tell you how to get buds out of a plant that is clearly immature.. you will be lucky to get a gram from anyone of those plants

right my bad, I just meant they came with the lights to hold them up so I didn't pay an extra amount that would have added up to being able to get a more powerful light. but yeah thats what I'm stuck with for the moment lol so flush is my best option?

why is it so immature, they've been growing for almost 2 months shouldn't it have matured some by now? they are pretty big I don't have much space left in my grow area for them

the nutes you are giving them is way way too strong, you need to find some lower strength nutes. those purple stems mean you have a deficency of some sorts though. have you checked your soils ph?
