Week 6 flower

[Ravski]

Week 6 flower should my buds be bigger. I'm using 25 litre pots I've got 2plants same clones. Was using 400w led up untill yesterday start week 6 but now switched to a sf1000 spider farmer so hopefully start to swell. This my first grow

Probably, what is the flowering time of the strain? Is that 400 watt draw or advertised watts?

What is the size of the tent you are lighting with your lights? Also the buds will swell a bit in the last two weeks

 

[Carcass]

They do look a bit small for 6 weeks-probably not enough light from the 400w.
You should see a big improvement with the new light-I checked it out on amazon-that's a nice light!
Do you know the actual watt draw on the 400?

My guess is light...
My not even week 4 buds are the same size I think.. I run powerful lights though

Advertised, I know that it's not pushing 400 so replaced with sf1000

No it was a cheap light paid hardly anything for it $60 is it to late for buds too grow now I changed light

This is why I'm in limbo it's a cutting I got from a m8 he wasn't sure what it was. I'm flowering 2 clones but won't be running this strain again

Pistols say not done yet .. 1 week id give and re evaluate

 

[Ravski]

I thought I could run for at least another 4 weeks but 2 weeks out 4 flushing

 

[Ravski]

No way way a week,many factors to why my hairs turning brown I've read I'm not totally sure but what I've read it could I've got direct fan blowing on buds and me touching them but a week is too early buds are not swell enough

 

[Cheffrey]

I thought I read week 8, not 6

Will new light do the job

They still have some growing to do-as long as they're putting out fresh pistils,then they're growing,but you don't have much time left,if they're 6 weeks in.
Just keep your eye on the trichomes-when some of the the ones on the buds start to turn amber,you'll need to harvest-that might be 2 weeks,or it might be a month from now.

Hahaha no worries pal thanks for advice though this forum got some amazing people

I totally agree will keep a close eye definitely

The leaves point to a sativa dominant gene, I would expect 8+ weeks, but that is just a guess.

 

[Ravski]

Yes you second person who suggested that I have a sativa strain and I could go 8 weeks or more. It's annoying I don't know what strain I have. Thanks for your help my freind

"Cheap light"? That is the issue. While I'm sure your light is producing better than some (there is a light out there advertised at 600 watts that draws 70 from the wall) I'm kind of with the rest; that light is not pulling anywhere near what is advertised.
My worthless Viparspectras are advertised at 300 and 450 each; my R300's pull 130 each and the par450 pulls 213 watts so out of an advertised 1050 watts, I only get 473 watts AND I'm also powering three cooling fans in my three lights so if I'm actually getting above 425 I'd be amazed.
BTW these are now relegated to a veg tent because my 2 quantum boards with their much less wattage draw grows better bud in my flower tent.
However, I'm sure your buds will finish fine and will get you medicated; that really is all that matters
