I don't think I attacked or insulted I hope I didn't. I've not read all comments only upto where he showed the setup so gave my opinion. I hope he takes something positive away from the comments and gets a good grow under he's belt.
It was harsh as I read it. Being in India?? IDK?

Just trying to keep the hobby civil. World is crazy. Garden is Zen.

And I do okay. Like to help this person.001.jpg

I have a 96watt actual I use to veg clones until picked up. Good lights. Just within limits.
What brand you using? I find the cheap branded LEDs do a good enough job for what I need. I currently use the old reflector series viparspectra and recently bought the new p series as not keen on blurple light. I'm looking into buying a couple of spider farmers soon and getting rid of the vipars.

Maybe it's a British thing lol it's been said before my comments sound harsh but it's not meant that way. I literally had just woke up and don't beat around the bush lol. Sometimes I see comments that are just delaying the enevitable. It's nice to be nice but nice isn't going to help the situation. My opinion is he should start over, take the advice of the experienced growers and get things right from the start then he should do ok and at least end up with some bud to smoke.

He has a good viable plant. Upgrade and progress.

Unless he can change he's setup which I'm guessing he can't I don't see he's problem changing. From what I gather in he's comments he's vegged it in that tiny space for as long as you would in a big tent. It has zero room to grow and do it's thing he flipped it to flower then it's had nowhere to do its final stretch and flower. There's clearly other issues at play also unless he gets it out of that space I'm not hopeful. What would you do with it? Out of curiosity.
 
This setup looks terrible to me, everything is way to crammed. Led light should never be 1/2 inches away it's not a CFL. You vegged way to long in that tiny space 12/12 from seed would be the only way for me in that small space. I think you'd be best to start again sorry to say.
What would be the ideal veg duration for a space this small? Noob questions, so please bear with me.

Hey buddy, I would do 12/12 from seed in that size space if was me. I certainly wouldn't veg any longer than 2 weeks. You will need to do some LST to keep the height down so you can keep that light further up as it's way to close in the pics you uploaded it won't do it's job properly. How long exactly did you veg for?

is that rue as in 1 flicker for less than a second during flower or do you mean a flicker of light penetrating the whole 12 hours
i sometimes shine my light at the temp gage in the middle of the night
I like to know too. Sounds like bullshit. A full moon at night has more light than a dinky flashlight. The moon isn't hurting anyone's plants.

Same goes for motion detector lights outside too... Never a problem..

It has to be somewhat prolonged and intensive to make a difference

Timer malfunction likely. Looks like the leaves are reducing in fingers. Like it went from flower to veg and back. I know a guy who had digital timer and same thing. I never use digital or built in timer on a light to control the light cycle. Never! Keep those for pumps.

Well, I vegged for 6 weeks. I have daily pics from day one in a grow log right here: https://growithjane.com/growlog/pagla-evcc/

I did do LST to keep the height down, as you will see in those pics
And put a scrog net at half of the box height
When I switched to flower, the plant height was beneath the scrog net.

I think he vegged to long in that tiny space and stunted it because it's go nowhere to grow amongst other issues probably over watering etc

My lighting is spot on, as I even checked for light leaks and found nothing. Also, my timer stopped working during the first week after switch, and there was a little here and there with the lighting schedule, but nothing after I replaced it. The delay was for about 15 minutes.

Yes, I should be getting rid of the leaves.
We hear that alot. Then we ask these questions and generally a light bulb goes off.

Does your fan have a little red light, does your timer have a flashing or red light, heater red light and so on.
 
Yea it’s looks like ur getting light in ur night time. And you do need to clean up a little get more light in there. When it’s day time for them. But like some one else said try doing the 11/13 to help out the process. Ur plants looked like one of my clones I cut right at the start of flower
 
Have you grown any other weed plants in there recently? Did those flower?

There is literally only one reason for this and its light.
This is the very first grow of mine in this box, as I only received it in August. The light schedule may have gone awry one day in the first week of flowering when the timer quit working and the light went off mid day. But nothing after that. I replaced it right away with a spare I had handy, so light has been good after that. Would you say that one day episode could have screwed things up?

No. It flips back easy.

You will find the light leak im sure. Just let us know when you do.

Maybe we can start a money pool on it. Lol
