@Growladyeastmidlands, No problem man! Appreciate the input! But I think I'm going to take a different route and just stay positive! Good luck with your grows!

Buds filling out a bit Not as big as I’d like to see them considering this strain should finish in a couple of weeks. Going to start cutting back on nutes for flush.

Grow Questions
Dabbeestarted grow question 2 years ago
Hey folks! Just coming back into the growing scene! Things have changed a lot since my last grow ten years ago.My question is how are folks getting their stems so thick and their buds so plump. My plants are doing well but not meeting this potential.What can I do to get this? Ty!
Solved
Buds. Not fattening

You have killer lights.
Its really just making the perfect photosynthesis. Light, nutrients and co2.
Have you looked up VPD.
Or you could try a negative pressure environment I've had much better results this time by just changing that 1 thing.
To hit optimal growth you need to relax on overfeeding. See the way your leafs are all curling under. Usually related to N tox and your plants are very green. But it's not to bad I don't see any clawing or you don't have a shine. Relax on the feed have a look at dual part feeds there's lots out now where you can give grow and boom together in ratios of 3:1 so say it works out .3ml/l grow to .9ml/l bloom for when they are flowering and turn that on its head for growth.
Jungle juice trio is a good line 3 1l bottles G,B,M for 24e or a dual part grow, bloom & micro from general hydroponics. It'll stop you overfeeding with grow as the pk from the bloom helps nutrient uptake so look into dual part feeding.
Also uppotting will help make for a strong root structure (root ball). So some ppl uppot up to 3 times to make for strong roots.
Anyways there's lots you can do to make for stronger growth, bigger buds. You have killer lights, id say the ppfd is huge so it has to be for ventilation and you need to keep bringing in co2 by way of drawing in o2 or use a co2 supplement but a negative pressure environment will help increase co2 and make for denser buds.
Good luck.

It’s all about genetics. Aerated lose soil in large pots help to. Once I switched to DWC, the stalks grow about the size of your pinky in just two weeks or so. No resistance to the root base for growth. Very nice plants you have regardless. Enjoy!

@Dabbee, right now I’m only growing auto flowers. My favorite seed banks are fastbuds and Mephisto. When I was growing photoperiods, Nirvana never let me down but haven’t purchased from them in awhile. Have fun growing my friend!

@StickyScissors,
Thank you I have considered the genetics being a possibility. Also I have been feeding every water so I’m thinking maybe I’m over feeding. My next batch I’m going to do a FWW routine to see how that determines the yield. My next batch of seeds I’m gunna explore a different company to see if the genetics are the issue. My last couple batches I bought from ILGM.com. Do you recommend any seed suppliers? Thanks for the input on the DWC it’s actually something I’ve been considering as well!

You said that your last lot hermied if these are cutting from the first lot chance of them hermie again is really high after hermied plants you have t9 scrap them and start over after cleaning everything so sorry to say they probably will have seeds again but they look like they have lot longer than 6 days left and pic not great so cant be 100% Sure but hermie are the worst and cost electric for the buds to be seeded amd no good the seeds also be hermie I lost 28 plants

@Growladyeastmidlands, different route meaning keeping faith in my plants and not just throwing them away in a panic. The plants turned out great with very little seeds and no seeds in the actual buds. I’m glad I went a different route and kept faith in my plants and harvested good smokable buds.

To everyone who responded to my question. Thank you so much for everyone’s input it’s extremely helpful! I’m new to this site so don’t know if this is a way to properly respond. But I have found that I definitely have been over feeding have have pulled way back to FWW cycle. Stupid newbie move, I knew better when I was growing 10 years ago! Looked through my logs from my old grows then and I cut way back on nutes and had so much better results. The SWOG in my diary JUST curled last feeding because I purposefully over fed to prepare them for the flush. But probably shouldn’t have considering I’ve been over feeding without them curling this whole time. Ugh! Also people saying it might be genetics I agree to a point because where I got the seeds I’m finding is not as popular as I previously thought. Also in the very beginning on my very first grow this year I found that I had WAY too much light and stunted the babies for about a month while I scratched my head wondering wtf was wrong. So I feel like the hermie problem was less in the genetics and more of my over water/feeding and over lighting issue. Also possible light leaks on the first grow. I’d didn’t pull back on lighting or nutrients on the very first grow which Hermed over and bred with my SWOG which is currently this diary. So we will see if the next round of MKU (first grow) hermies after consideration of the lights and nutes I’ll post the diary for the next round today. So any interested parties can see what I’m talking about.

First diary second grow this year. I have been out of the growing scene for the last 7 years or so. I’m trying to recalibrate and get back to the buds I once enjoyed. I’ve been having some hiccups here and there but the first harvest turned out pretty good. Any tips on plumping buds or tent setup is absolutely welcome.
