5weeks into flowering how am I doing

5 weeks into flowering under 600w light using tiger bloom and bud power n candy bud

Looks great, I'm at week 5 today also and your's are just a little skinner, I am using twice as much light as you though, but just as you know, they look great Have you been hacking the fan leaves though?

NEVER remove fan leaves unless you absolutely have to! They provide a valuable energy source to the plants. Always tuck them out of the way of buds when you can, or if you need to just remove a small portion of the leaf

Leave you leaves alone.
See if you can bend down the tallest cola, so you can get the light closer to more of your buds and level off your canopy.
Good job.

It's only a few fan leafs about 4 or 5 big ones.Ok thanks for the advice will do that

Yep, thats why I asked, I'm sure you would have had more growth in your buds had you left them. I usually scrap them wk7 to stress my girl and also allow more light for the final 3 weeks

nice man they look good mine hit week 5 yesterday vegged them for 3 weeks mine are not as big as those mine are under 1 250w and a 300w cfl but im getting some good results

have ya hit them with a pk spike like pk 13/14

Don't no what tht is?this is my first time doin this I am using 0.5g of bud power per liter and tiger bloom 10ml per gallon per week

Looks great!

you need to hit the plants with a pk spike at the stage your at i use big bud from advanced for 1 week along with my base nutes at week two of flowering.

then pk 13/14 at week 5 have you any grow shops near you,if you have tell them you want a pk spike or high phos,pattas feed just for a week then add it to your base nutes then back to base nutes after 5/7 days

Bump the ec up too,im not saying they look bad because they look on track doing well.
but get the most from em ya can leave em 9 week its the last 2 week when they will swell.

I'm not 100 % sure if the bud power is doing the same job has big bud whats it say on the tub the numbers eg 0-4-6

I have just bought cann hydro pk boost 13/14 will this work thanks

yea spot on but if it says add for 2 week just add half the time i only add canna pk 13/14 for 7 days max.
adding this will make a big difference to your final product get in in the feed now though good luck dude

but higher the ec

Thanks advice mate

no problem any problems just in box me me all ways add ya pk to your water before the base nutes

yes cfl are very good for the veg, im finding the cfl for flowering is not too bad just the yield is not as good as hps but considering the cost effectiveness off them is much better and easy to control the heat of the room. oh i can believe you the growth rate on mine is mind blowing
