Using that "about" 150 watt at the wall purple light in your other post you won't be getting those big fat buds you see many others using much more light growing. Just because they call it 1000 watts doesn't mean it will come close to the results using an actual 1000 watt light will achieve. Get more light.
So it should bulk up ,I was sort of thinking that myself coz I was going to wait until the end of this month and see how it is do U think I should give it a dose of Epsom salt to flush out any build up of nutrients.

I would say no on flushing with epsom salt. Others may chime in if they have tried that.
They will bulk up the most after week 7-8

I'm also using two other full spectrum lights with the 1000watt light so three lights at one time coz I only have a tent and the size is 180 tall by 80×80 wide
Ok thanks this is my first time doin this ,I've grown them outside before and had great out comes

She's thin because of lack of light. Like many other suggested. Just add more light.

Adding more crappy lights will only expand the light footprint. If you want increased bud mass get off of the blurple panels and look into COBs, QBs, or old school HIDs. Nutrients or a lack thereof do not affect the actual size of the flowers; wattage does.

Agree totally. Light is the key.
I'm making do with wat I can afford and the lights I have I've seen people using them and getting good results I'm new at this so it's something I've done wrong at the start
No offence but as others have said it's your lights and chasing anything else will just run you in circles.
Save your money and upgrade your lights asap. Sorry you got sold on blurples like countless others.
See I just want to use led lights I don't want HID lights to expensive to run and I only have a tent that's 180 tall and 80×80 wide .I still think I have done something wrong at the start like letting the plant get to talk to quickly rather then keeping it short and full and maybe my nutrients are not the best I don't know how good the brand of nutrients is that I'm using aswell I'm also thinking the soil I'm using isn't letting the roots breath properly either it's a cheap potting mix I will show U the lights I'm using and the nutrients aswell and tell me wat U think
