Slow bud growth Hey everybody would anybody have an idea on why my bud growth seems stunted? Like maybe it's just genes and it's a slower bloomer or what? That plant imho seems fairly healthy but it's just producing flowers at such a slow rate compared to its sister sitting right next to it

Why are my buds so small?Why are my buds so small? Could it be my nutrients? The thing is both plants have small buds. Almost like this is the natural size of the buds. Any insight as to why they are so small would be greatly appreciated. Check my nutrient schedule. Thanks for any help.

Week 5 of flower starts tomorrow and I think my buds aren’t fattening up like I want? They have started to a little in the past couple days but I’m wondering if I’ve got my nutes right or if they need more or more volume? Any good suggestions? I updated my nutes on my diary.

Change nutrition to support building of buds I plan to change the nutrition to Plagron Alga Bloom instead of Alpha Boost and Soil-SuperMix for the next watering. Hope that this will help the plant to build bigger buds. Do you have suggestions on that? Is there anything else I can do to support the plant on building buds?

Plant not growing anymore Yes I made a mistake with bottled nutrients and burned her. She is in nutrient lockdown and im flushing her for a week. But she is not growing anymore. Leaves are all curled up and brown on tips because of nute burn. My question is should I leave her or should I cut her?
