week 5 flowering/ small buds

[Forts]

Hi, I´m in 2nd day 5 week of flowering, the buds growing wery slow, actualy looks like they stopt growing. But trichomes have appear. what you think?

 

[SoOrbudgal]

Well we can't see them real well in pink, try taking a photo in natural light. But size wise they look about right.

Hi Forts...someone else will ask ya for pics without the blurple. I'm not experienced enough yet to advise on this except to say that if those are a sativa they will have long/longer flowering times.

Better picture would definitely help. But without info about your setup - light - medium and such stuff. Is a little hard to tell what is maybe wrong - or maybe not with it.
and strain info would also help people to give you an answer

Day nr 3, week nr 5 flowering. growing tent is 2x2x4 (0.6mx 0.6mx 1.4m) Growing in soil. GHE flora series nutrients. two 300w led lights. Afgan kush spesial. a lot of white hairs, but this buds don´t looks very big. Check dizz out ;-)

 

[CaptainWiese91]

the flowers looks good ? I don’t think anything is wrong?
But yea they are small at this stage for a kush in week five,
but they still look good.
what size are the pots?

 

[Forts]

7 liter

 

[CaptainWiese91]

7 liter? That is really not much...
I think this is your reason why they stopped growing at the speed you wanted.

 

[CaptainWiese91]

Or this I why they aren’t bigger in this stage.
Bigger pots - bigger buds

 

[Forts]

For next time I need bigger growing tent and bigger pons. Thanks ;-)

 

[CaptainWiese91]

7 liter is just too little.
I still think you can have 20 liters pots in that tent without a problem.
I use 40 liters pots in my tent.

 

[Forts]

tent is to small. I grow two plants, two pots and humidifier really takes a lot of place in this tent, I need bigger one. Planning to build one (home made 0.6m x 1m x 2m)

 

[CaptainWiese91]

This is why I have a 3mx2m and 2,10m in height.
And with 2 big fans, 5 plants, 1 humidifier. I only use like 40% of the tent

 

[Forts]

I don´t have so much space for so big tent. what you think buds going to grow bigger? how much grams you get from one plant usualy?

 

[CaptainWiese91]

Normally around 100G dried. Sometimes 80, sometimes 70.
It really depends on the grow and how many mistakes I made a long the road.
They will get bigger and mature more for sure. I just think it will maybe reduce Size of the buds a bit. Because maybe it’s already root bound?
If it don’t need nutrients - don’t give it. So you don’t get nute burn.
And some strains and phenotypes are just little slow on the flowering side also. I have 5 of the same strain in my tent now. And they definitely don’t drink the same or need the same amount of nutrients for example

Those buds will fatten up. Give them time.

Is that 5wks since you started 12s or from the time you saw pistols? .......

 

[Forts]

no. it´s photo flower, I start seeing the pistols in week 3 of 12/12. now is week 5 12/12

 

[JDU]

I would count that as 2wks in.

 

[CaptainWiese91]

JDU i would count that as 2 weeks also. So then it’s actually a pretty nice looking plant you got there, was it also before 👍🏻
But weeks weeks from pistils, is really good. Maybe it doesn’t grow as fast as you want to maybe then ?
