There 2 in there i vegged it a littke too long forgetting that sativa triple in size through flowering. I have tried lst'ding it a little to help with yhe size. Im using a 600 watt mh/hps oracle bulb, in a 4×4 grow tent, i started with roots grow slid into roots bloom and roots organic soil/ after a quick visit to hydo store i was talked into synthetic neuts and stopping the organic one. The plant has been in flower id say 4-5 weeks approx. I know sone sativas take very very
Long to bud . It was showing rapid pistal growth and filling in of some branches, other then what u see its seemed to look like this for several weeks. Do anyone know if this is normal. And what i should do. Im just wanting to seecactuall lil buds allready. My soil ph is about 7.5 and the new synthetic neuts r flora nova bloom 4-8-7

Plant was just flushed for the first time recently but only once. I startedvto think i might be preventing the plant from growing any further in flower do to high nitrogen levels in soil. Any things i can buy like appetite enchancer and all that oher stuff chemicals etc. Thanks 4 ur time to help out

YUP THATS IT THERE HIGH NITROGEN IN THE SOIL. This happens a lot. I prefer to have a soil mix for veg, and then transplant before the transition. There is a brilliant chap on this site with some advice on how to lower your nitrogen amount during flowering. i think two teaspoons per gal of freshwater.

should i be relushing it more frequently and u guys think i should go back to organics w? lower nitrogen levels or u think i should stay w? flora nova bloom higher nitrogen levels. im just wondering if i damaged the plant from being able to really bud or is it a fixable situation. i also wasnt phing /checking my tap water at all i reaaly heard from several sources that nyc has some of the best testing tap water around. so other then letting it sit out 24 hours for excess chlorine 2 dissolve thats it water w/ and w/ out neuts. every other day or so. thanks again 4 ur replys . im starting to obsess my self in staring at the plant every few minutes praying 4 change!!!

Go and get a 5-gal office water cooler jug. Gas stations and supermarkets have them. That'll be around 0-15ppm and right at 7.0pH so it's great to use. Roughly a quarter a gallon. Don't flush them, taller plants take more effort to get the water and nutrients all the way up the stalk. If the stem is not thick enough it can hinder its growth rate a little.

The stems our very thick enoumous i think there like tree bark on the outsude i had a few males i threw awaw a month or so ago and could barely snap them over my knee .

The ph meter i have only goes up to 8 so im afraid the ph could be even higher i first thought it was 7.5 but then i started thinking if......... so what if mu soil is really blocked up with excess left over nitrogen . I thought flushing it was onky way to correct the imbalance in the soil. Thanks for u help buddy

Some sugar water will help dissolve the salts in the mix. Too much nitrogen can choke up a budding beauty. Try to avoid using a pH meter. Many need to be calibrated and cleaned often. Get the dropper set. It always works because it is a chemical reaction not a meter reading. If you are adding any nutrients, stop.
So this is what I would do:
-Flush with sugar water (2tablespoons per gal should suffice) try to use warm water to mix the sugar in so it will dissolve completely. BUT do NOT pour warm or hot water on your plants it will scald the root system.
-Slowly work nutrients into the plant at 1/8th strength then 1/4...etc
-Figure out what your relative humidity is as well
