6 weeks into flowering...too late to add supplements to boost bud growth?

Hi all, this is my third organic grow and 6 weeks into flowering I'm not seeing the sugary, fat buds I was hoping for. They are still respectable mind you, but not awe-inspiring. Pics attached...:leaf:
These are all bagseed from a while back, but are all indicas, and two I think are Northern Lights, or some variant.

My question is, is there any value in adding a bloom booster at this stage (only 2-3 weeks left before harvest), or am I wasting my money? I'm inclined to skip it and try again next time early on in flowering, but you folks are the experts. I had thought that the carb-y goodnees of Heavyweight would be enough to beef them up, but then I read about some of the other bloom boosters out there and am wondering if it'll do them any good. I don't use CO2 but am thinking about getting a Co2 boost bucket.

Here's what I'm feeding them:

Botanicare Pure Blend Pro Bloom - soil
Botanicare Liquid Karma
Nutrilife Heavyweight
Gro-Tech Cal-Mag
Growing in a soilless mix in 3 gallon pots under 432W of T5 Flourescent lights

Should I add HydroPlex or a similar bloom booster now for the last 2 weeks or did I miss the optimum window?

Yes, I know that I'd get better results with HPS lights, but i'm in 4 x 4 closest and the heat would be killer. T5's are what I can do and they have worked pretty well.

Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks!

If you think you could increase the size of the buds why not?
I would, and I would water them real good, flood them, then add a week to finish.
 
Amazing looking buds considering no nutes. I would definitely give it some bloom booster. She still has some weight to put on and it should help with late moment trich production.
 
they look great, u could give them one dose no problem, remember most of the weight of the buds is put on IN the last 2 weeks, so no worries, they r going to get there, nice grow!
