So I just went through a flush and 4 days later it looks like the buds are doubled in size! Unbeliveable how much they have swollen! I noticed the leaves that were showing stress before continued to get worse, which Ive read will happen. Now the pistils on the tops have completely fried! About 1/3 to 1/2 of the pistils on the entire plant have started to change rapidly after the flush but the top colas pistils ALL look fried! I have a 600w digital at @ 24" on one side and 1 1000w at @ 26"- 28" on the other. The room is 6.5 x 6.5 x 7. Im not sure if this is a problem caused by the flush or the lights?? Anyone with any ideas?:confused:

im no pro at this YET,but are you saying tht you have got 1 plant under 2 lights?if so that may be your problem thats alot of watts over 1 plant in such a small room.have you checked ur temp at canopy level?i dont think tht shud go above 85.well thts my opinion,hope it helps

Sorry for the confusion, I do a split harvest, there is a total of 40 3gal pots under the two lights. I will post some pics. when the lights come on tonight. I have a good camera but not sure the best way to take the pics, do I want a high mega pixal setting? lighting? The temp at canopy is @ 78-80 and room temp is @ 76-78. I say fried because they are totaly dead, more browish and shriveled. The pistils on the rest of the plants are not as bad and the change started at the top, all the pistils died on the top buds and now its been a couple days the rest have started. P.S. Think I can add more sqf?

uhh sounds normal, pistils do that the shrivel and turn reddish brown, more pistils will replace them

Yes the pistals turn a reddish brown, it's a natural part of the budding process, then it'll grow a new calyx and pistals, which is how the buds end up nice and fat.
