help! buds stopped growing!

i dont know what the hell happened but my buds stopped growing. the first 7 weeks they were growing perfectly, but the last 2-3 weeks growth has pretty much stopped. i KNOW its not time to harvest, what the hell am i doing wrong here? please help, anybody!

sounds like you've got indicas and you've switched to 12/12 in the last couple of weeks. indicas can stop growing in flowering

is there anything i can do about it? and if not should i harvest soon or take a wait-and-see approach?

I feel Like I have the same problem. They exploded for a while, now there just chillin' and not really changing colors or getting any bigger. Cant complain about the current size but still. Im only 5 weeks in.

Flowering is stop and start. You can go 2 weeks without seeing any significant change, then in the space of a few days everything could be different. If the plant is looking healthy, stick to your routine and man it out for a bit. The plant will produce when it's ready to.

Opinion- not enough c02.

I seem to have the same problem, buds are there but growing real slow. However this is my first grow so not sure what to expect. Any ideas??

needing more air circulation.

AN overdrive will make them keep on getting bigger

Me too... Folks your missing out if your not taking the co2 route.

Make sure you don't have any light leaks. I changed my set up around this past time because of how cold it was. Long story short, I removed a duct and that ended up allowing a bunch of light in. Didn't catch it till it was too late. I ended up harvesting early because it just grew a bunch of leaves.

yeah my bonsai'd plant sop getting bigger it seems once i untied her bondage she stopped but I'm on 7 or 8 weeks cannot remember mostly clear frosty but states its a 10-12 week strain heres photo of her

Mine did same thing 2nd grow
Pic two shows my seedling on left pk ripper clone on right and center is pk ripper bonsai'd currently under root washing due to nasty organics i ran

Okay are you using soil or hydro? the roots is only reason it would stop growing.

I to am having the same problem this is my 1st grow as well I'm about 6 weeks into flower and my plant has stop bud growth and the last pic is of plant 2 starting 12/12 in the same closet but she only started spouting pistols 2 weeks ago

Sorry for shitty pics. I'm growing in soil I know the plant quality isn't great, learning as I go.

im honestly not even sure what this post is about

maybe the tilt of the moons gravitational pull has caused everyones plants to stop growing

theres some pretty crazy responses here lol

I try not keep the sarcasm to a min. this is meant to be more funny than anything else
