Hi they're welcome to the farm. Your lighting may not be enough. What size is your grow area?

Thanks

 

[dnewsome2]

The room i have for bloom is 8x8 i have 2 lights in that room and 3 plants under each light

You have two 500 in an 8 by 8?

 

[dnewsome2]

Thanks

What distance are you keeping your light during flower? Are your loose Bud coming from the lower parts of the canopy?

No 2 1000 watt hps in an 8x8 room with only 6 plants

The tallest plant is my candy mother and she is abt 12-14 inches from the light the other ones are abt 2 feet from the light

Okay lighting is not your problem.

Sounds like there's plenty of light, so leading me to think some type of nutrient lock out causing "airy buds".
Are you checking ph on your feeds/waterings ?

The fact that you are using HPS then I would start leaning more towards my temperature being the problem.

Are you using a record keeping thermometer near the top of your canopy? It is possible you're getting hot spikes you are unaware of.

Its usually 70 sometimes it gets a lil warmer like 72 but i dont think it has gotten any higher than that

Get a record-keeping one. I thought my temps were good too until I found out I had these hot spikes they were going up to 90 and I never even knew it

Place it near the top of your canopy.

So if it is spiking what do u suggest i do to keep it down

I don't know your setup that well or if you have an AC unit. But you may have to increase your air flow when it spikes.

I have 2 box fans and 2 oscolating fans already

You may need to put your ventilation on your lighting like a cool Hood And pump it out of your room.That is assuming that you're having hot spikes
