Little buds?

[oliviaaxoxo]

We’ve been at this “flowering” stage for about a month or so. The pistils are curling in & they smell strong. I’m just not quite sure if I need to add more nutrients or what. I’m not sure what strain this is either..
This is our first plant and I just don’t know much about it

Newbie here, but I think it needs a stronger light.

I currently have a 600w LED light..

 

[Nunyabiz]

Definitely more light, and probably a touch less nitrogen in flower

 

[Nunyabiz]

I currently have a 600w LED light..

Actual 600w from the wall?
And how far away from top of plant?

 

[Mcdoolit]

I currently have a 600w LED light..

What kind? I bought a "1200 watt" light off Amazon and it isn't truly a 1200 watt light. Also, what size is the area you are using it on?

 

[oliviaaxoxo]

I’m using it in my spare/guest bathroom. It’s not too roomy but it’s big enough for the plant to grow & have some space..

 

[oliviaaxoxo]

I bought this one after doing some research online.

It’s hung from the ceiling and I believe it’s about 75cm from the plant. But we can easily move it closer.
do you believe the aluminum foil on the wall would help??

What do you mean by touch less nitrogen??

 

[MochaBud]

I agree with @Nunyabiz , stronger light, and less veg nutes during flower = less nitrogen

I bought this one after doing some research online.

Those blurple lights do good for home grown spices like Thyme or cilantro...not so good with cannabis

The light I have has a Veg option and a bloom option. The two turned on make it the “purple” color.
The Veg color is a blue/white color & the bloom is just Red.

Also what lights would you recommend ?

 

[Pepperhead]

Buy a 315 cmh light around 180 -200 $ and would be good for a few plants

Would I use this light during flowering too? Sorry I’m new to this so I have no idea what I’m doing

I bought this one after doing some research online.

This light only pulls 60 actual watts from the wall. Additional lighting is definitely required.

 

[Pepperhead]

Yes
The light comes with a bulb look online and see what is for sale
Also are several grow diaries on 420 mag that show people using them
Just use the search and do some reading
I use a 315cmh and have really good success
Inalsonhave a timer to control the time the light is on/ off

That my friend, depends on what your needs are are you concerned about heat, electricity consumption, cost of said electricity.....myself, I have 2600 watts of old school HIDs, but just ordered a couple TS 1000's from our Marshydro sponsor for 79 bucks a piece, for my other veg closet...actually with our 420 discount, I only paid $158 for the both of them

The fixture yes, the bulbs are different...you have a MH = metal halide for veg and an HPS = high pressure sodium for flower....here's my old school HIDs...

Big girls are loose, and looking for room in the flower tents...lol

Considering your light has an actual 60W draw you've done a great job and have a healthy plant. When possible, spring for a quality light and the difference in bud size will be exponential. Very nice pics with great contrast.

Those are beautiful !!! I currently only have 1 plant which we grew just randomly to see if we could even get it to grow. Now it’s become a hobby! Lol.
May I ask what discount code you used? Or if you contacted the company? I’m looking and possibly going to end up buying the TS 1000. But figured I would ask
