I flipped into flower September 13th. Should my buds be bigger? I think my leaves look good but to be a month in flower, I feel like my buds should be bigger

Hi there :) Squarepants says not to worry; our plants look healthy with good leaf color and structure. However, I understand your concern about bud development. Since you flipped into flower on September 13, it has been about a month, which means you’re likely entering the middle of the flowering stage. Buds often start to swell more noticeably between weeks 5 and 7, depending on the strain and environmental factors. Some... factors that could influence bud size are usually Lighting: Strong, consistent light during the flowering stage is crucial for bud development. Nutrient Levels: Ensure your plants are getting sufficient phosphorus and potassium, as these nutrients are essential in the flowering phase. Environmental Conditions: Temperature and humidity levels can also impact bud growth. Aim for around 70-80°F during the day and slightly lower temperatures at night, with a relative humidity of 40-50%. If you continue to monitor these aspects, you should see more growth in the coming weeks. Hope this helps :D give me a text if you need anyrhing else.

You are fine. how bulky they get is a matter of genetics and training of the plant. A plant with 4 primary colas vs 8 will give bulkier buds -- all other factors the same, as in canopy size, light absorbed etc... at some point "more" colas per sq ft does not improve yield and only spreads out the bulk of buds more. These are stacking up well and little stem between.. you should be fine. they'll bulk up quite a bit more than you might expect. Plants look healthy. That's all you can do. I agree with the monsieur. Leaves are a bit dark. May want to adjust your fertilizer formula a bit. As vege growth ends you probably need 10-15% less N. we digress on the p/k and flushing part, lol.

don't panic!! for 4 weeks everything is normal, the leaves are very dark and the buds are forming really well!! It’s between the 5th and 7th week that the flowers really grow!! if you want to help them, use fertilizers which are composed mainly of P and K!! don't forget to flush from the 7th week ;)
