Why are my buds so small? Gonna be harvesting in t...
Stickanswered grow question 6 years ago
Hi there! Burnt tips and spots onto the leaves show that they suffered from overfeeding. Were you really applying a 4.2 EC during weeks 6-7-8-9-10? Considering you're using LEDs, the distance between the light and plant's summits could have been smaller. Also if you're really watering with 18L everyday, they must have been overwatered more than once. Finally, buds usually fatten during their 2 last weeks, so you still can see them get bigger in the next days. Hope this helps, I'll be around, keep us up-to-date and happy growing!

I think they've been suffering with a lockout which has stalled calyx growth. I see on Day 52 you have flushed. This should help clear a lockout although may require multiple flushes. I've had a lockout due to over feeding. I got to the flushing stage, and one week into flushing noticed huge calyx growth. I left them for 3 more weeks and the buds go massive. So basically I had stunted bud growth for 2 weeks with over feeding, and when the flushing started the clock started again and I had 2-3 weeks left. So, keep flushing when the plant gets dry and observing - you should observe the buds getting bigger (first a more white pistels will appear) as the lockout gets …… unlocked :) Patience for bigger buds buddy!

It could be the strain. But I also don’t see any nutrients listed. Have you been feeding nutrients? If so, what nutrients are you using?

What to do? → BF Runtz Auto - Day 42 - RH70, 80F in BioBizz Light SoilOn my last post, I was advised I have N tox, so I watered w/o BioGrow, just BioBloom and it's gotten much worse. The runoff EC was 1.5 (watered with 0.8, runoff pH was okay), so I’m guessing it's salt buildup. I plan to flush when this watering dries out—any thoughts?

Any input? Small nuggzzzzMoby dick Auto has been slow but steady on the bud growth, way slower than other genetics and this is the only plant from this strain so no comparison. I find the buds quite small, Super frosty, dense and beautiful smell but harvest is getting closer and nuggz aren't fattening up

Harvest or leave in the sun for a while?My plant got way too little light inside when i tried a 12/12 light rhythm. now it looks like the trichromes are getting milky already even though the buds are tiny. Should I harvest to avoid losing thc or leave them outside in the sun for a while still so they might grow ?

What could cause a Gelato to grow only popcorn buds?This is, luckily, not my plant but the sister of my Gelato Auto which for a long time did not want to grow. The pictured one did, but ver strangely: Thin, weak, extremely long branches carrying a multitude of popcorn buds. Grower is experienced. Any ideas about the cause?

opinion on bud maturity ?About 6 weeks since flip from flower and wanted to know if the orange/browning of the white pistils means that the bud has already reached its max size and will only ripen ,but bud sizes look pretty small to me does this mean yield will be low ? or am i just overthinking.
