Buds not fattening up week 6

Post by Red squirrel fowl »

Hi guys, first post and looking for a bit of advice

I've got a current grow that's 6 weeks in flower it's a 20 litre pot with coco under a 600w light feeding twice a day on a timer to run off, using coco ab and pk13, 14 to make the ec up to 1.1 my pH is between 5.8 to 6.1, checked run off last night and its coming out at 1.9 ec.

The buds don't seem to be fattening up at all for this stage of its life , the canopy looks lush green but I've lost a load of lower leaves, they are shriveling up and dropping off. Any advice to get her back on track would be appreciated.

Is that the highest the feed has been? It sounds like she's throwing a hissy and is locked out but at 1.1 that shouldn't be happening at week 6.

Can you try upload some pictures as that would help a lot.

The pk isn't high if not being used consistently at that amount. How long have you been using 13/14 at 1ml per litre.
