Im at 5 weeks flowering and it seems like they stopped growing. using 2 400w hps @12/12. using fox farm big bloom. about 3 teaspoons to a gallon. my res is only 5 gallons. ph is at 5.5-6.5 not sure if this is part of the process or not. Ive grown in soil and had a similar issue. Its a closet grow with doors open during lighting period. any help would be appreciated THANKS IN ADVANCE!
PS, My camera is focked!:leaf:

When you say you think they stopped growing, are you talking height? 5 weeks into flowering, what strain? At this point the plant may just be focused on bud growth. What do the trichomes look like? So many variables here, need more detail

Thanks for the reply.. The height hasnt changed. 1 Qurkle and a Lambs bread strain.The leaves have some burn spots and some almost look like nute burn... thinking about flushing them with just Phd water.I stole this pic,the leaves are similar to mine. The buds arent as big and still have lots of white hairs. heres the pic:https://www.rollitup.org/harvesting-curing/277698-week-10-flowering-another-2-a.html

By your description and the looks of that bud being relative to yours, I would say it's locked up tighter than a drum. Res changes, fresh water and nutes, and a good wipe down never hurt a thing. I would clean bucket, tubing, and airstone (or your bubbling device) with distilled vinegar....maybe throw in some humus acid when I feed. Teaspoon to a gallon of water.
