Did you cut all the leaves off before or after it started flowering? I’m guessing your problem is related to the lack of leaves, which are needed to fuel growth.

Yeah, as it's been stated, The plants depend on those leaves for absorbing light. By cutting the leaves off you are essentially holding your hand over their mouth so it can't breathe suffocating it, so to speak. Light trimming of large fan leaves and the small lower unwanted branches and leaves is quite common and acceptable, But you should never strip your plant completely bare.
You've ever seen a malnourished stray cat after its gotten wet? Cause that's what your plant looks like, lol. Sorry I couldn't help it.

My buds stopped growing. How can I speed up it's growth?

Northern Lights (outdoor balcony grown)
FoxFarm OceanForest
Coco mix perlite50/50
FoxFarm Nutes

Where did all the fan leaves go? I wouldn't worry about it. Outdoor can take some time. It does look like you defoliated that plant to the max though.

I did it because I thought it wasn't getting enough sunlight from the fan leaves but I learned that fan leaves are good. What about any bud bloom nutes?

Listen, I'm a simple guy. The most I give my flower plants is properly diluted Cal Mag.

I respect the guys who PH the water, go heavy on the nutrients but I really do none of that. I'm a less is more guy when it comes to growing. Sometimes the less you do the better it turns out.

Keep on growing man. It's a hell of a hobby and you learn something new everything time you grow. Let us know how it turns out.
