Hello fellow homegrowers
this is my second grow, using 2 CFL "lotus" bulbs 105w (equivilant 525w) daylight and warm white spectrum (1 of each) plus a small 25w warm white for added measure. compared to my first HPS grow these plants are TINY i mean TINY i planted em in October ffs. Soil store bought, fertilzer used is one for flowering tomatos npk 5-6-7. the buds are really frosty but small. the lebanese seed, seems tighter and less airy than the white russian, could be maturing earlier. The hairs are turning orange all around for some reason on the WR, but ive read that thats no problem. either way, i water once a week give or take a day, i fertilize every other week and have used molasses the last two times in an effort to get denser buds. the white russian has ALWAYS had purple stems and this is driving me mad cause its not uniformly purple but some stalks are and others arent. the main stalk has some streaks on it, idk if this is a deficiency or strain thing. Any way have a look at the pics and let me know what u think.
ps how much more can i expect them to swel, the way they look now ill get like 4 joints outta those plants.

Well man, it's a long shot for these plants to get any better at this point. So I would say wait for them until the trichs are ready and harvest.

Don't chop the entire plants though, just the buds, then get your HPS back on-line and put them under 18/6 hours of light and try to reveg them.

It's true that cannabis and tomatoes are similar plants from nutrient requirements side, but with the fertilizing formula you are providing, there is not enough N to assure a strong stem and leaf growth during veg (explains the small size, your lights might also be the culprits here) and not enough P and K to really give the plant what it needs to grow big compact buds.

Get some quality nutes man and try again :)

Hi
so the buds are looking bigger and theyre nice and frosty. there's a great pic of the trichs. Started using a high P and K fert, seems to be helping. the small dense plant is the lebenese strain, the bigger one with more branches is the white russian. Im thinking seeing as to how one looks better than the other that it was not my lights. this white russian is definitely more sativa dominant, seeing how fast the more indica dom lebanese strain is maturing, gunnrunner ty for your priceless advise.

Glad to see your plants are slowly getting on the tight track bro.
Be mindful with the nutes though and don't get over excited, keep an eye out for nutrient burn, and Add more lights!!! Get the yellow/orangey kind, instead of the flat white lights

Don't worry about the purple stems, it's the plant's reaction to colder climate.

My PC Seedling is barely 2 cms tall, in 70F temps and has already developed a purple stem ^^
