Your temp and or humidity might be off. But I'm not sure how much those effect density, however, I have been told that they do.

Are you using CFL's? If so that may also be your problem.

You may also need to flower you plants longer and give them more time to fill in.

Yep. Assuming your environment is not out of whack in some way ( temp, Rh, nutes, water) it pretty much comes down to proper lighting and also genetics. Some strains like many of the hazes don't nug up too much compared to others.

yup come back and let use know what kinda lights your using as long as your using HID lights or enough T5s then we d have to look else where for issues. Did you keep your co2 levels bewteen 1200-1500 ppm during lights on with temps 80-85 F to get the benfits of co2 when using it? Did you use any flower hardeners like humboldt counties gravity? what nutes and how many weeks flower?

HPS and MH are both kinds of HID lights.

A friend of mine recommended Dr nodes. it tightens your buds up and keeps your plants more compact. the stuff works great. its a bit pricey, about 130CAD a bottle, but its worth it IMHO

no worries! usually its the light that makes fluffy budds.but thats not the case.if your nutes are tight and ph ,it might be the stran.

Usually it is a light issue, now sounds like the watts are good, but how old are the bulbs? If the bulbs are old, the buds will start to get more fluffy! Might be as simple as new bulbs! :)
