I understand CFLs are weak, but I've seen numerous people growing successfully with them. Of course it's not the same quantity or quality as with a real light, but they do have smokeable buds. Not just fluff.If you are flowering under CFLs, that's about all you can expect. You need a more powerful light.
that plant looks fine. All it needs is more light.
Edit: BTW, they use less water during flower because the light is only on for 12 hours (assuming you aren't running autos).
Those are 105 watts eachYou are going to need at least 100 real watts of twisty bulbs to flower a plant. And you likely dont need a full dose of fertilizer every time. Probably a combination of excess nute buildup and not enough light.
Those are 105 watts each
Also I see some tips pointing up, which from what I read is light stress, doesn't make sense since my lights are weak.

SoilAre you growing in soil or coco?
Around 26C with lights on and humidity 50%Temps and humidity?
Sounds about right. Idk they don't look over watered, not showing deficiencies and look healthy for the flowering time.Around 26C with lights on and humidity 50%
The bloom nutes shown in your pic are from a 3 part lineup from advanced nutrients... you're going to need the micro and grow nutes to accompany the bloom nutes.... using only one part of a 3 part nutrient line will not perform as desired. At least that's my understanding.
I haven't read all the replies but if you're not going through water you may need more air circulation around your pots. Is it 26C on the floor or at plant height . Soil may also be too dense, more perlite? What are you using I don't see a mention of it.As soon as my plants go into flowering they stop drinking water, while most people say consumption goes up in flowering. Goes from once every 2 days to once a week maybe. Sometimes two weeks to get really light. They also produce super airy buds that have no filling but covered with trichomes. All my work wasted and I don't know why.
1) My first grow was outside and I had pH problems.
2) This time it's inside and I have treated the soil with a healthy amount of dolomite and the pH is stable. Water consumption has already slowed down considerably again ...
3) No visible problems with the plant that I can see. Maybe the purple stems or leaves too dark green might be N toxicity. This is day 17 of flowering.

I'm so disappointed, does anybody have an idea of whats going on?
These are the nutes I'm using with every watering.

1ml cal/mag (recommended 4ml)
8ml bloom (recommended 8ml)
2ml humboldts (recommended 2ml or more in flowering)
This is not entirely true. I have grown with cfls and I’ve gotten very nice tight buds full of trichs.If you are flowering under CFLs, that's about all you can expect. You need a more powerful light.
