Hi,
I have 3 plants indicas and im worried that there buds are too small for the stage there in. Im in the 3rd day of the fourth week into flowering i flipped the light to 12/12 april 30. Its a 2x2x6 tent and im using a 1000w led light. Im giving them water every 4 days when the pot is light and there getting 0.7-7-7(8ml per galon)/ 5-0-0(5ml per galon)/4-1-4(8ml per galon) and the ph is between 6.5-6.8. I am also giving them 80 percent of the water with nutes in it then i top it up with 20 percent just 6.5 ph water to prevent nutrient burn i assume itll help water it down. I trimmed them yesterday and they don't seem to be reacting negatively just worried if i messed up and stunted them somehow or if i shouldnt be giving them the regular water top up or whats going on plz help and my first official grow!!!

Hello fellow indo user. Are you using there nutes aswell?
Any yellowing round the bottom leaves?
How close is your light?
 
Hi yes using strictly their nutes! And light is about 10 inches tops for the 2 plants ones a bit taller so about 6 for that one and no absolutley no yellowing no tips curling or nothing the leaves are green
 
You are fine, the plant is just starting to flower, I would guess 1.5-2 weeks that you’ve seen flowers forming, plants don’t start flowering instantly it takes time for them to transition. Don’t worry about what week it’s in, or how many weeks it’s flowering for. Don’t expect to harvest it at and specific week or day, that’s not how this works. Just keep it healthy and it will reach the best potential it can in your environment.
 
Do you follow the feeding schedule they provide? I found it to be a little light my girl needed more then they recommended almost every stage except seedling.
I have my light around 8inchs from top of canopy. By the looks there hungry is all try giving some nutes with the top off or feed heavier then you do. Go slowly ml by ml you can always feed more.

AGREE. Week counting is folly. She will tell you when shes ready.
 
It all boils down to your light.

that plant stretched its ass out trying to get as much light as possible. You could have trained it to bring canopy “ tops “ lower , and reduce node spacing and let lowers have the same penetration.

As it stands now only the very top flowers will mature fully. As you push distance downward , it will be Larfy buds.
 
I notice you didn’t mention light distance. They are stretching pretty hard. But a 2x2x4 isn’t very big to begin with, you only got 4ft tent height. So distance may become an issue if they keep stretching like that. Stems become harder later in flower making training next to impossible unless you super crop, and I don’t recommend that unless you know what you’re doing.

Their in the 4th week of flowering would they strech further? I still got about 10 inches to the light except the main cola for one plant and tent height is 6ft 5 if because of the exhaust etc

Tough to say, but I would expect most of the stretch is probably about over. They will keep getting a bit taller but I’d be surprised if they shot up a ton more.

Ya, listen to @Thundercat.

Also, some strains take longer to start packing it on. My Sunset Sherbert starts gaining weight way faster then my Chem 91. But it also depends on your growing conditions.

Your plants look great though. Just don't chop too soon.
 
Awsome, thanks everyone i will keep everything the same just top nutes off a bit and stop any trimming and just give it the time it need! This site is great i really appreciate everyones input!!!
