week six flowering stopped or slowed

HELP!!!!

end of week six flowering seems to have slowed or stopped. this is my first grow I vegged for 5 weeks and it’s the end of the 6th week of flower (put into flower on 4/20) i am using a grow tent 2x2x5 growing 2 amnesia haze using fox farm nutes big bud, big bloom, tiger bloom, beastie buds, and cha-ching. I am using a 150w with 48 3w leds mars hydro LED reflector series full spectrum. Exaust fan and a small 6in clip on fan circulating the air and blowing on the tops of the girls. And yesterday I added a 42w cfl. I am Growing in happy frog soil in 3 gallon smart pots, I just ordered a soil ph probe that will be here in a few days. Light cycle is 12/12 scrog method. So heres the deal I have done extensive searching on this subject and have corrected any light leaks in the tent in the past day. At about week four I had some humidity problems with it getting to 98% some days. I have gotten it down to about 60-65% consistently. But as a result I noticed some white powder mildew on some of the leaves under the canopy. I carefully picked off the contaminated leaves and treated with the baking powder/dish detergent solution 1 tsp baking soda ½ teaspoon dish detergent in 1 gal of water, and rinsed a few days later. As a result of the treatment the hairs on some of the top buds got burned. I have calcium chloride (rock salt) in small trays under the canopy to help regulate the moisture under the canopy. Since I treated them in week four they have slowed or stopped flowering. The buds are nice and sticky with plenty of trichomes and smell very sweet but have stayed the same size for about two weeks now. I am hoping that it was just some light leak during the darkness combined with not enough light. I figured its time to get some second opinions

They are stressed from the baking powder frying the pH of the plant surface or the dish soap clogging the stomata

Next time you find PM - Use horsetail grass tea......But it on line and brew it as directed....When cool, pour into a spray bottle and spray your plants.

Can be used right up to harvest.
Organic
plants LIKE it.
kills PM dead.

Now clean your grow or it will come back!
 
thanks for the info. will they come back and start bulking up. did i just push my flowering cycle longer?. how long can i expect before they resume? should i rinse again? uploaded picks.
