I have been flowering these girls(?) since 11/27. I thought everything was good but now the bud formation seems to have stopped and I am not sure what to do. Also I am running out of height on my lights so I have to keep tying down the branches. I am using 2 600 watt HPS lights on a 12/12 cycle. attached are a few pictures for you. Anyones comments are appreciated. This is my first grow so I am very concerned and nervous.
thanks for your help.

I have had to keep moving them away from the lights because they have been getting burned. The tall one is off to the side and above the light.

Is your light cycle getting interrupted in any way? they must have 12 hours of full darkness.

Thanks for the reply. I have a veg roon right next to the flowering room when I go in to the room there are some light leaks but very minor. The strain of the plants are either calif orange bud or Haze19skunk.

OK I have fixed the leaks I think will check tonight. But I have a problem that my plants are too tall for the grow room. Do you have any ideas on what I can do? How about putting a screen over them and pushing it down a bit and letting the buds pop thru?

As i replied to your other post i would tie the top down, slowly bending it down everday. be very careful as it's a bad time to stress your lady. and yes those light leaks caused you some problems that will probobly set you back a while.

umm first of all, no those light leaks didnt cus our plant to grow like that. wiht 1200 watts you should have a forset of thick nugs, if you started flowering 11/27, geez man you really have some problems. U said you would walk into the veg room right next door, and it would get hit with some lumens? for how long would the door be open. I can tell you if you switched to 12/12 back in november,t hen they havent been flowering. you would have dense nugs and you would have chopped them back in jan / feb. Its now june, 8 months of 12/12 and you havent gave up?? I would get some new genetics. you dont want to tie her down, it will stress her and effect potency of the bud, But its not going to be that great anyways just looking at the photos. I had to tie a plant down from growing into my light, check that link, under prop 215, theres a few photos. its basically lst, all the branchs try to become the top, since its now tied down, and you get a bunch of new shoots...
