nutrient burn so cut it in half then if it starts going yellow too early add a little bit of something heavier in nitrogen, you dont want plants to go yellow until last week of flowering. Do you have fans on the plant? What are watts of lights? Whats the numbers for your nutrients like 5-15-10 or what? You probably will have to flower longer because of the low wattage compact fluorescents something like 10 weeks. You must flush out the plants with boiled tap water in microwave is easiest or tap water that has set out for like 4 days. if you do it with straight tap you'll get chlorine taste in your buds. You need to flush the last two weeks to get out the salts left behind from nutrients, and its like if you have a gallon pot you have to give it like 5 gallons to flush it. Also you must dry, then cure buds if you didnt know. O and jorge cervantes says on first day of full flowering switch it to 24hours darkness to get hormones changed faster i havnt tried it but i want to.
