my girls got off to a slow start as i overwatered but they did a nice turnaround. they aren't that tall but i don't mind because they are on a balcony on a city street. i see all these amazing pics of big fat, coke-can colas. will mine ever fatten up? i know they have at least a month to go but they are so spindly. is this the way they should look at 3 weeks flowering? i've given them flowering nutes once and plan to every 2 weeks. i also gave them some natural molases once.

The nutes are good, every 2 weeks. I water every other day (it depends on how dry your soil gets).
Are they getting full sun all day? If so, I would move them to a spot that offers 6 hours a day sun (or less than full sun all day). This will make the plant get ready to harvest. You will notice a difference. I sure did. Mine are geting about 5 to 6 hours a day now of direct sun. I have noticed a huge difference this week. They are getting bigger and bigger and now I see crystals forming. I am going to wait another month to cut them down.

since you got them in pots you can move them put them on a 12\12 light cycle 12 dark 12 light.in a shed or basement or something along those lines.they will fatten right up in no time on a 12\12 cycle!! good luck!

Those look really good for 3 weeks into flowering, yeah they'll fatten up alot more than that. You probably got another 5-6 weeks until they are ready

if they're already outside, doesn't mother nature give them their 12/12?

3 weeks that looks about right here are mine. 3 weeks today! I have also been looking for a good comparison for my plants. I got a month and a week left till harvest. we can follow each others grows to see if we are at the same speed

wow, your's are awesome. mine hardly grew the first 2 months due to poor soil drainage and my overwatering. it's nice to know they will look like that next year when i use a proper mix. are they indoor or out? i didn't want them to grow too big though since they are at the front on my house on a deck. it's amazing how noone would ever suspect.

very good looking plant matt...my girl has been flowering for about 18 days and it looks exactly like yours...nice dark green leaves and great flowering sprouts...those dark green fan leaves hold all the nutrients that will feed that bud to get even bigger.. I am also harvesting mine in about 5 1/2 weeks...It's crazy, my girl looks identicle to yours!! I bring it out during the day (it's in a huge pot) for 12 hours and bring it in for 12 hours in complete darkness. I have an "all seasons" room that lets in natural sunlight so my plant never sees below 65 degree weather...in a couple weeks, there will be the natural 12/12 cycle so I will just leave it in there all the time. I also water my plant heavy, once every 4 days to keep from that nasty problem of root-bound issues. Good luck and they look great~!

you should throw mulch around them ..
help keep those nutrients in the soil while its flowering
