Pistils so so so slow

hello everyone, I've been following here for a long time, but I'm a new member and joined you.

This is my 5th growth. it's been 4 weeks since blooming but the pistils are progressing very slowly compared to my previous growth. only a few crests and a few pistils near the light. This is my first time growing indoors in a warm city. 32 degrees in the cabin. I am using 400 watt self-assembled yxo chinese leds. Humidity does not fall below 50 degrees. What do you think could be the reason why the pistils are slow, is it just the temperature? I close the door of the closet and cover all the places that can get light with clothes. Help me! Please.

I guess very little light enters the cabinet at the beginning of flowering. I made sure I closed the cabinet door completely and no light came in. Do you think the growth rate of the pistils will return to normal?


sorry for google translate i really tried to fix it i hope it was understandable :')

@b317 are you using an extraction fan or is your plant sitting in stale air in that closet? She needs fresh air or she’ll use up all the co2 in it.

yes i use a duct type fan, it's a bit small but so far it's handled me. I know plants use excess CO2 when there is extra heat. could this be my problem?

You are definitely hot at 32c. That’s the room temp right? It’s likely hotter under the lights at canopy level.
Even a small extraction fan will help tremendously and you have one so the air is moving. Weed loves co2, and will grow faster and bigger with it but it doesn’t have to have high levels of it. I doubt co2 is the issue, is there any way for you to cool the air in the room. That’d cool the temps under the lights.
50 to 55 % humidity is fine in flower.

Since the temperature was much higher at first, I did not close the cabin door when the lights went out. I guess I couldn't get a good dark for flowering and so they slowed down.
I've been closing the door fully for a few days now and I think the pistils are starting to heal. I hope this is my problem.

by the way i forgot to mention the fan is an external fan always working

here are some close up pistil photos for you

hey latency is not critically important. When conditions are like this at week 4 of flowering, can I still get a good harvest?

The weather in my city was even hotter a month ago. now it's a little bit lower but still warm. In the city I live in, the wind blows so little that people say, "Hey man, the leaves don't move".

You’re 4 weeks in so all you can do is keep rolling and try to optimize the conditions as much as you can.

could it have gone into bloom because it wasn't getting dark enough? So I only have 4 weeks left to finish?

Those might just be preflowers. When you flower you want uninterrupted dark. No light leaks.

@PadawanWarrior

thanks, they probably suffered from light leaks because I left the cabinet door open. I am now completely off.

@MustGro

not in much of a hurry. My only fear was that the blooming had begun and the ripening time in between was wasted. The photos of small brown pistil immature plants I saw on the internet scared me. I never want to grow plants like that

I guess the bloom is just starting so my anxiety is lessened a bit :')
