ok so i forgot to water my plants yesterday when i looked at my plants today i had some droopy leaves and my buds arent rock hard anymore i can sqeueze them almost flat. wtf happened?
should i use molases?
 
forgot to add im 5 and a half weeks into flowering. im using sunshine pro coco coir.ph at 6. jacks classic all purpose + bloom booster nutrients.
 
184 watss of cfl. i keep them 1-2" away from the actual bulb. 3 days ago they were all rock hard. now* some of them i can squeeze them preety much flat. they are in small containers i usually water every other day,recentlly i went 3 days withouth water and my leaves got droopy which i was expecting. but my buds are fluffy as hell. they are the size of a bic lighter.
 
honestly man i could understand if they were fluffy to begin w/ as i grow w cfls 2 and my first grow i had some fluffy buds but for then 2 be rock hard one day and then fluffy? i dunno man well have 2 wait and see if someone with a little more xp can answer that 4 ya:)
 
i gave them water + food today.will that get them to swell back up? maybe my oscilating fan is blowing to hard on them and drying out the buds?
 
Maybe you should stop squeezing the crap out of your buds @ 5 1/2 weeks. Just give them water and let them go through their cycles. They may very well have different stages where the calyx's are swelling and they may seem like they are soft to you, but really it's just your buds growing and they may firm back up later. I wouldn't expect rock hard buds in the end from a few CFL's.
 
The water is what helps maintain the cellular structure. Without it the whole plant will go limp. Another problem could be a lockout. Sometimes problems in the root system will not allow the uptake of water/nutrients. This is usually from over watering and not enough oxygen getting to the root system to maintain a healthy root ball. This can also happen from the plant being root bound. You mentioned that they were in small containers.
