Not watering for 3 weeks :shock:

Plants can take going dry but unless your pots are masssive 3 weeks will stunt/slow the growth to a stand still until the plant can rehydrate & get back on track.

But it can take more than 3 weeks to start budding depending on the strain,lighting type plays a role as well,if you have the wrong spectrum lighting it could slow the process as well as weak lighting,ive never flowered with cfl lights but i see lots of others using them to flower & one of the complaints is slow bud growth because the lumen output is so weak....

I had the same thing happen to me in flowering. I had a plant in soil that I didn't care much for, and I kept it in the flowering room but didn't water it. The plant stopped growing entirely, and did not show sex at all. I had a change of heart, and decided the plant would be good for at least a joint, so I applied nutrients and water. It shot back like a rocket, and displayed sex in a week. Now it's filling out nicely, good for several joints at this point! I recommend you apply a lot of TLC to your plant, 3 weeks without water is rough! You might be able to save her (fingers crossed) if you play your cards right!

I didn't say to take your plants with you, I said I don't know the answer because I don't leave my plants unattended. I have not had that problem. I wouldn't try to shock it anymore. Give it some time to repair the damage.

i moved more lights above the plant instead of around the plant and fed it some nutes, anyone think that will help.

im no expert but i would take precautions to everything esp. the amount of nutes you desperately want to bomb your plant with. 3 weeks without water is EXTREME!!! pretty hard to kill a plant but i dont know about ressurecting it, how about some pictures?

what kind of lights are you using? If cfl buy a few of those 42w warm whites at home depot...10 bucks each. Place them as close as you can and all around your plants. Budding takes alot of light. I have been using cfls and my plants are a week in with not showing flower yet. I already have 10 lights but I am growing too many plants cause I want females.

for the 3 week watering problem...NO NUTES! its dry, it needs TLC from clean fresh water. Flood it, wait 3 days flood it then it shoudl be back on track then start adding nutes (if its not dead). it could take 3 weeks just to get your plant back on track!!!
