Big Bang problems.

[aussie haze luver 29]

Hi guys i have 2 big bang under a 400 hps in a tent and i have been having it on 12/12 for 2.5 weeks and it still isnt showing sign of turning to flower? IS this normal? Yeh it is heaps bushier but no flower development? What to do guys? I have no light leaks and all is good vegetively. Yes before comment they dried out a bit on top for a sec last night when my pump failed lol.

it is bushy not sure whats happening to your plant but i suspect it wasn't ready yet to sex itself needs to grow a little more so i would give it a week or 2 more and i suspect them to flower.

All up 8 -10 weeks? So greenhouse plants have a regime for flowering??? Any other strain all has been good but now i am going to be out of meds for another 10 weeks.. hmm

Oh and it has preflowered it is 18 inches high!!! Did they change the genetics? O is it a bummer? Love the company but now i am fucked for another 3 months.. Money over meds hope herbie hasnt got old stock

if she has the preflowers on the stems i think you should not worry too much, maybe if stocks were little old the seeds is a little slower, but 2weeks after light change it is yet not all fucked up you still have good chances to have a nice plant after the stretch, didi you notice a boost in growth since you switched?

Yeh dust it has stretched, almost straight up with no side branching compared to what it had. will take a pic later tonight and give you a look. It looks strange as it is going straight up instead of out like others. If they dont do much i will know to try somethig different.

i know this was last answered a week ago but have you tried giving only 11.5 hrs of light rather than the 12/12 regime only saying cos my friend is doing the same strain  and had a similar issue till he shaved the extra half hour of light away his are now beautiful looking/smelling only not a lot of side branches just one massive fat ole really pic below

when you turn your light back to 12/12 from 18/6 the plants will stretch due to the increase dark period, some strains will show signs of flowering with in a week, others may take longer.. so from this post.. it should be almost 4 weeks in?

how is it looking now?

also you can use the stretch to your advantage by tying down or kinking them over , rule of thumb is to fill the room 2/3rds in veg and use this stretch to fill the rest

YEh guys i thought about taking another 1/2 hr off and all is good now. They did stretch a fair bit but wow the buds are comming on nice. After having some trouble they should produce ok now. Thanx for your help guys and will continue to show, I think i am just a bit rusty after not growing for a while...

Have a good grow man
