I honestly do not know what im doing wrong. I don't feed until 3 1/2 weeks in. Every time I water the PH of the water is always around 6.5. The runoff is always 6.5.

Why is my damn baby literally the size of my dick when its 2-3 weeks away from harvest. This has happened to me three times now. I thought maybe its because of root bound. But noticed people use 16oz cups (the container its in is about 18-20oz) and still have 1ft tall plants. Am I simply waiting too long to feed (using Lucas formula for low light) and get massive nutrient deficiencies that surpass the low light lucas formula? Or is this a case of shitty genetics?

The hell is going on?

Yeah but this strain is suppose to be bigger than my hand :S..As said, I wouldn't understand why container size would be causing it to be that small since ive seen 16oz cup threads on multiple forums that still managed to be 2 feet tall and yield way more.

Nothing is wrong except that your container is very small.

Hey, here's a crazy idea: transplant it into a bigger pot and see what happens. duh...

Vegetate your plants at 20 hrs of light or more, even into the first week of flowering. Use this with a combination of LST and you should get way more vegetative structure, thus more yield. GL and cheers! Stay Crunchy! Crunch*

Hey bro.. Think of this.. What would you think of an old plant thats been into flower for like 8 weeks with a few yellow leaves on the bottom? You wouldn't think much right? Well with auto's they dont have to be in flower that long before the bottom leaves start turning yellow.. But there is no difference between the 2.

This is what I did...Nirvana short rider...3gal and 5 gal pots full of MG potting mix....75 days later pulled...two weeks later ended up with 23.3-30 dried grams of awesome bud per plant. I used cfl for a week or so then placed outside.

Light? Types, distances, light hours. Looks totally light deprived.

(2) 42 watt (actual not equivalent) and (3) 26 watt CFLS all kept within one-two inches. So I'm above the minimum 100 watts per plant. I keep them on 24/0 until flowering then reduce to 20/4

The previous grow was 20/4 entire time..
