Airy not dense not fully covering the stem colas are small that type of popcornish

I’ve never been able to gain more than an ounce outta my harvest on 2-3 plants that is discouraging

Are they from clone?
What nutrients do you use?
Medium?

That light is only 150 watts that could be a issue. how big is the space you're trying to cover?

I am still fairly new to all this as well, but in my opinion you're not getting nearly enough light. Are you in a tent? If so what size?

No clones strait fem seeds nutes are synthetic called tps medium im using coco loco and I’m growin in a 5x5 tent 7 ft high

Also “lollipoping” or pruning secondary branches down low will help. The lower stuff wont produce much and is only stealing energy.

I’ve done all that I’ve low stressed trained them allowed even growth leveled the canopy evenly trimmed when leaves were blocking bud sites

I am not in tents anymore, but i am almost certain you're not getting enough light.

Here’s the first problem you need 30 actual watts per square foot , you have 25 so ya need at least 650 tru watts , u are only using 150 currently

I guess I need to invest in a better light any suggestions

150w actual draw is the issue since your in a 5x5.

I run a 1000w HPS actual draw in a 4x4. That said if I dont defoliate lower sites and limit colas. . i will have all popcorn too.

Give it more light and less budsites.

The good thing is you can veg with the 150 watt light. Now you just need a flowering light I use a 4x4 light so I can't recommend one. Anyone got a recommend?

I was using a 4’x8’ tent and running four xs 2000 viparspectra. They are good lights for the money, in my opinion.

Every grow I’ve attempted I’ve ended up with popcorn nugs. What am I doing wrong?

I would flush then cut your nitrogen way back,run less fert strength,cut cycle time back and hour too at this point to try and get them to "think" the season is closing

Ditch the leds and go hids. Once you get good buds, then go led.

A good led for a 5x5 is like 1000 bucks.

So here get this 600w HPS. . id tell you to run a 1000w hps. . but most cant manage the heat. . . you really should buy the 1000w for 20 bucks more though. . and turn it down for now.

IMO, to properly help you, we gonna need all the info you can provide, including how you grow your plants. Your light, medium and nutes are good info but lacking detailed info as to how you use them. We're not there, we dont know exactly how you grow.

For one, I find your plants quite odd with branches growing almost horizontal to the ground. I cant find any explanation why your branches are growing like that. Again it could be just genetics but if you have tried different strains before and the results are the same then it may be time we need to check your growing procedure step by step.

Are you using TPS One? If so it has a NPK ratio of something like 3:6:4 I think and they promote it as from start to finish. IMO not an ideal ratio for growing and vegging.
