a crop of 20 under 2 lights that during the veg stage, had a few day period of getting less than 18 hours of light. we are now in the 15th day of flowering and it seems like we're going to be getting a lot of "popcorn" buds. no big colas fo us:evil: any help, input etc. would be appreciated.

Of course you must yhave said it and I just missed it. What kind of lights are they? what watt? how far away from the lights? Oh yeah I almost forgot, what strain is IT?????

1000w hps, 2-3 fit from plants, the strain is grand daddy purple. the room it's in is dialed, it's just this one bed of plants that had the light stress.

I think that is besides the point^^^


isnt 15th day a little early to tell what type of buds you will be getting? Thats just the very beginning of your flowering stage...

Good answer, Graf! Yes, your buds are just starting to form, and will continue to grow for several weeks. Then they will fill out, and then they will ripen.

FYI
Flowering is divided into 3 parts. Growth spurt (da stretch), Flower formation, and Flower ripening.

HTH :mrgreen:

yeah, i thought 15 days was too early to tell too, but my friend who's been doing this for years says that we've got a problem, and his word is very trustworthy. i'll look in to getting some superthrive, anything else? should i be trimming the bottoms heavily to let the plants focus more on the tops?? i appreciate all of the seasoned growers advice...

Yeah, they start out looking like little popcorn buds, gotta start somewhere. buds overnight would be nice though..
