hi, i have 1 alaskan ice in flowering and the buds are really tiny:S
it was put into flower a little small admittingly but it soon shot up in height and width.
it took about 4 weeks to show the its first hairs then the buds started to form as normal, its now been in there for nearly 9 weeks and the buds dont seem to be growing properly.
there under a 600watt hps cooltube and in a bubble bucket on ionic nutes.
ive grown it the same as all my other plants but its just not doin its job!
i put 2 big bangs in for flower 2 weeks after i put the alaskan in and the big bang nugs are awsome :)

does anyone know wot the hell is going on with this plant?
any advice is greatly appreiciated

cheers ishy:leaf:

its a 600watt hps cooltube with a growlux bulb on a strict 12/12 light schedule,temps are between 75-85deg with a ph of 6.0 and ec of around 2.0.
all my other grows have been successful as are the other plants in there right now.
maybe they will suprise me and just fill out all of a sudden but tbh i cant see it happening lol

nah theres no light leaks at all, all the other plants are budding fine,i got 2xblueberry n 5xbig bang and there buds are nice n fat, ive had 5 other harvests using the same flowering room and all ha been good, i think its just a dud plant or sumat, i remember wen it was in veg it took ages to get going.
i had a look earlier and i spotted a few bananas and about 60% of the hairs are now brown so i think ill just chop the bastard in the morn just incase it screws with any of my other plants.
i wont be grownig alaskan ice again lol

thanks for the reply's guys :)

ya gotta ditch the tall sativa looking phenos, they suck. keep the short fat girls and they'll turn out lovely. clone the piss outta the short fat pheno and be ready for a wicked round of smoke! 2-2.5 oz. dried off of 2 1/2 -3 foot plants.

ya got stuch with simply hte wrong phenos. that strain is a hybrid so ya get more than one typa plant. try again if ya like. dont get so down. bad things happen to good grows sometimes...

well i chopped it and threw it in the bin lol the buds were that tiny it would have took me hours to trim and probably would have been shit so fook it!
ive got another alaskan budding and its doin great so fingers crossed :)
i harvest 2x big bangs in 2 weeks so all is good, there only about 2ft in height but have sum really nice fat buds which im really lookin forward to smokin! im estimating 5oz off both plants so lets see if im right (im usually quite close with my predictions).
