Lower buds not big

Hello fellow growers,

I was wondering when the lower buds are going to get big. basically, im pretty much a month deep into flowering, and the main cola is doing nice. this is probably cause i got around 5000 lumens on it. Will the lower buds ever get bigger? Do i harvest them later and bring the lights much closer to them?

Or is the only way to get them bigger to get more lights? I know I should get at least 1 more. just money is real hard to come by while in school.

I would harvest the main cola and upper buds first and let the rest go for another week or two, like you said, more light or side lighting is only good if you have the money, so this is the best way right now in my opinion

well when harvested at the same time they are not as potent because they havent had the oppurtunity to fully mature and they usually get used for making hash. That is one of the reasons for the lollipop.

just bought an 85 watt cfl. hopefully it will stick in my socket, and will make my tree happier. its like 5000 lumens i think. that means ill have a lot of lumens going on. very nice.
