small cola buds 5 weeks into flowering

all i seem to get is popcorn buds the cola buds are small, using 9 42 watt cfls at 2400 spectrum, im not using any nutes right now, how can i boost the size of the buds, thanx

feeeed them nutes or at least molassas, also, research lollypopping plants.

are you taking off all the small branches off (nugs) at the bottom of the plant ? and yeah you need to be given em nutes definitely.and whats your ph ?

5 weeks is too early to expect fat nugs...things will usually swell up in the last 2 weeks

ur buds should be developing nice by now but they wont nec. be big yet

could aslo be ur genetics...

maybe ur light are too far as well??

5 wks from 12/12 flip means your buds are 3 wks into bloom.

Wrong dude. Breeders start counting from the start of 12 / 12 for indoor growing. You are giving misinformation.

thats what i thought. that would mean my flower cycle is 6 weeks lol

I've had this confirmed by well know breeders, so there's no question.

I dont have a ph tester, where could i get one, they been at 5 weeks since 12 12 switch, id definately like to pick up some decent nutes, any preference? also the only leaves i been taking off is the fan leaves and some smaller leaves around the buds to get light, its a sour diesel plant.... tganx for the help

House & Garden 'Shooting Powder' will blow them up like a pro athlete on steroids!

Everybody on here is wrong.
Everybody on here is correct.

There's way too many factors that go into growing, and way too many different strains and phenos of those strains that all react differently, for all information to work on every persons grow. You could simply have a low yielding strain. It could be under fed, leading to smaller yield. Your lights could be too far away, causing lower yield. It could be too hot. It could be too cold. The space could be CO2 deficient. etc.
See what I'm saying?
Not all of the time, but most of the time, those claiming "this is the 'right' way to do it" are either trying to sell you something, or are just plain stupid.
There's really not very many absolutes. Everything else is personal preference only.

There's always more than one opinion on every subject too. Example FACT: not every breeder counts the day of transition to 12/12 as day one of flowering.


Ah, sorry, I'm rambling..........

I'm not getting it - What's your point?

Man, I just don't understand why so many people have their heads so far up subcools ass. Probably future cult members.
