Bud spacing

[NewGrow91]

Yes my autos are in flowering but seem to have big gaps in between the forming bud. I would say it’s kinda airy in between the bud if that make sense. Can anyone help

Could be not enough light or you could just have a stretchy strain. How many watts you have per a sq ft ?

 

[NewGrow91]

I’m in a 3x3 tent with one Viparspectra 600w which I like true it pulls around 273wats from the wall

 

[JavaCo]

so 30 watts a sq ft you might try moving the light closer to the plants see if it helps any.

 

[NewGrow91]

Okay I’m thinking about getting another light same exact one I have and running about 6-8 plants think that would be a good run? With the two Viparspectra 600w in the 3x3?

 

[JavaCo]

You could do the same thing with 300 watts of quality LED. Check out timber or maybe even a quantium board.

Okay great thanks. About how much do they run?

Going to be more expensive but worth it in the long run. Shop their sites for prices I really couldn't say what a light for a 3x3 runs these days.

Okay yeah I’d love to get one of the electric sky quantum’s but just out of my price range. Know anything about spider farmer quantum’s?

You can limit the stretch by controlling the temps. Search Temperature Differential. Colder night temps and warmer day temps increase node spacing during the stretch period. You can even have warmer night temps than day temps for a short period to really limit the stretch. Pics would help. How close are the lights?

About 20 inch from plants they are pretty small considering they are autos

I hanging a Spider farmer SF4000 in my 4x4 tent. The SF4000 is a great light and is a beast in veg and flower

One of the biggest factor in spacing between nodes is going to be the Kelvin temperature of your lighting. The more red light (2000k), the longer the spacing. The more blue light (6500k), the shorter the spacing.
Also not mentioned is potassium. Lack of potassium will cause long internodal spacing.

Low light intensity, plants touching eachother, high infra red radiation are a few more factors.

Okay thanks you guys. Here is one auto how much longer do you think she has in flower?

That looks pretty weird to my untrained eyes. Is it re-vegging?

 

[NewGrow91]

I don’t think so these genetics I got aren’t the best they started flowering early on. It’s a really small plant.

Would the sf2000 cover a 3x3 tent with 4-8 plants?

I think it would. The coverage of SF2000 show on their website is Veg:3x4 Flower:2x4

It's 200 watts, good for veg, but you should have around 30 watts/foot or 270w for flower.
