Hey brother, nobody is saying anything to be rude or anything or lying, all the cfls are over rated in wattage, not just yours. I was lucky and had a good grow store that when I started they only recommended more light if you want better flowers and can control more heat. I still have about a small room of old grow equipment. If you keep growing you will have a lot of shit you stop using.

As soon as my plants go into flowering they stop drinking water, while most people say consumption goes up in flowering. Goes from once every 2 days to once a week maybe. Sometimes two weeks to get really light. They also produce super airy buds that have no filling but covered with trichomes. All my work wasted and I don't know why.

1) My first grow was outside and I had pH problems.
2) This time it's inside and I have treated the soil with a healthy amount of dolomite and the pH is stable. Water consumption has already slowed down considerably again ...
3) No visible problems with the plant that I can see. This is day 17 of flowering. Maybe the purple stems or leaves too dark green might be N toxicity.

I'm so disappointed, does anybody have an idea of whats going on?

These are the nutes I'm using with every watering.

2ml humboldts (recommended 2ml or more in flowering)

U can't flower in them small tubs if u want any weed at the end and ur plants won't drink much water if u do not increase the light power and heat by a lot u need at least 600w light to get anything decent

The advice here is good, but not everybody can grow big.
I mean people grow pot inside false computer towers.
Temper expectations knowing that your situation isn’t ideal ... you’ll still get a harvest.
The simplest thing to do is double your current light. It will add some heat too.
You got buds growing, just need to help them along.
I’d put a fan in there too, a small clip on will be fine.
If you really enjoy doing this you’ll eventually add some equipment. LED should be at the top of the list.
HPS is not necessary anymore for a nice home grow.
