Hi @Jodas I can tell you this is more a nutrient burn problem than lite. Mine had an extrem to much light problem, I ended with apical chlorosis, it turned white due to too much and close light but I didn't had buds like yours. I am pretty confident to say, this is nutrient problem.

Hey jodas, im just gonna say, bigger pots almost always equal better and possibly bigger plants. Ive heard in a science podcast that your yields and health are often a direct result of the substrate, is it rotting, is it getting root bound? If you feel they're root bound then yes up the gallon size. For an indoor like yours though i wouldn't think much over 7-10 gallon is too necessary. I hope this helps in a small way. I agree with the light problem, and if you cannot raise the lights higher and have decreased your intensity, the only thing i can think of is to lower the hours since youre flowering anyway...perhaps down to 10 or whatever you see works. ✌️🌱happy growing. And happy harvest.

Hi @Jodas! It looks like this plant is suffering from light burn and nutrients toxicity, I don't think transplanting would help at this stage, in fact this could be counter-productive and may generate another stress. I do believe that these buds are the results of multiple mistakes in the previous weeks (big stretch, overfeeding, bad light<-->plant distance...). We all learn by failure, I'm confident your next run will be successful. Until then, patience is the key, keep us up-to-date and enjoy your harvest 👊

Hello @Jodas ! A rule of thumb is to choose a pot that has a volume of 2 liters per week of veg and 1 liter per week of flower in order to avoid root bound. So at your case the size of your pot should be around 28 liters but that's not a big problem since you are using aero pots. These pots prune the roots so you don't have root bound problems. Happy growing ! 👊

Bud size is a product of the amount of light. A bigger pot will not give you bigger flowers. More training will help you with that, a shorter plant with a flat canopy

7 gal would probably help. As the saying goes "more roots, more fruits". Good luck! 👍
