Will my buds ever swell up?

[Noobie4321]

Its day 35 of flowering witch means 4 weeks 8 days buds look and smell really nice when will these explode and swell up nice for harvest????

 

[Blew Hiller]

They will double in size last 2 weeks...

Hate to tell you this but my honest opinion is that yours wont. They look too mature to swell at this point in my opinion. Most of the pistils are curled or brown already. Either that is a very light yield strain or something in the grow was out of whack slowing bud development. It is my opinion that with that plant, what you see is about what you'll get. Looks like there is a possibility there was too much nitrogen which can block out important nutrients needed for bud development. too much N in the flower stage will prevent your plants from forming buds properly, resulting in lower yields, less potency and possibly inferior buds.

or not...

To top it off I see you just have some cfl's around it for your flowering lights. That dont help at all either.

 

[Cultivator]

They wont mate. Not much any way, you got some issues going on. Has you light cycle been interupted?

 

[BobbyZ]

They are still young and growing. Although your leafs have me a little puzzled.

 

[Noobie4321]

Nothing is wrong my plants in beginning were going in reveg i fixed that issue and it has enough cfl lights they are day 35 in flowering thats including the issue with the reveg because plant go confused

This plant here also you cannot tell me has to many red pistols and blah blah blah thats bull shit

 

[Stunned]

looks to me that it's been starved of light

 

[jodyhighrollr]

Nothing is wrong

There's something wrong man

 

[Noobie4321]

Well if 11 100watt cfl bulbs that are 2700k and 6500k each bulb is also 1600 lumens if thats not enough light in a 2x4x6ft isnt enough light sitting close as possible to plants that it can be without burning the. I dont no what is enough light

Don't know about cfl lights but your buds are lacking from something. If they revegged than you definitely stunted your growth. You won't have much of a harvest at this point. Enjoy what you get and chalk it up to learning.

 

[Killian]

What strain is that. I've never seen that many one fingered leaves before.

Thanks and your totally rite lesson learned this is first grown my other plant is doing good one has mature features and i have not seen much change like i do with ither plant

So you come here asking for help on your very first grow, I repeat, your very first grow and you get news that you don't like because you're grow did not go as you thought it would and you want to tell me blah blah blah there's nothing wrong blah blah blah LOL. Those are not 100 watt CFLs for starters they are 100w equivalent which are actually 23 watt CFLs! And no,11 of those in a 2 by 4 tent is nowhere near enough. That is only 30 watts per square foot and CFL is weak to top it off. You need to double your amount of CFLs to be in the ballpark. The par that comes off of CFLs is very weak and will not penetrate anyting. If you're wanting to run 23 watt CFLs in a 2ft by 4ft tent you better have at least 20 of them and all within 2 to 3 in from the plant. And yes, those buds are fairly mature and the pistils are showing signs of age so you can" blah blah blah" all you would like but everything in my response was 100% correct. You will not get very far on this forum asking experienced Growers for help and then snapping when you don't like the response you get. It's your first grow and it can only get better from there. Too much nitrogen kills bud development, reveg kills bud development and 11 cfls in a 2x4 tent guarantee weak bud development end of story.

In a small tote you may.. may have been able to flower a very small plant with the cfl only reason saying is people use the led shop lights or similar too for vegging an clones but I dont think its be too significant for flowering an bro trust an believe at least 80% of people on here aren't gonna steer you wrong for the sake of cannabis best luck with your grow man dont give up first plants are never prize winning plants my first plant I grew at 15 was only a quarter wet so it's a learning process

Well said. More controlled than my response and all very true.

 

[Odinstrange]

An honestly that was grown with fluorescents, led an flood lights it was a mess but still my first grow it's been a few years with off an on grows an just now finally catching on with my first true indoor grows

I never snapped i hust really am looking to find out if these plants should be harvest now or keep them in for 30-40 more days see what i can get from them i fucked up big time but thats also how you learn never again would i try to grow with cfl
