Dear Kokos,
There are many reasons that buds don’t get big and fat. Once you know that the genetics of your plant will produce big, fat buds, it’s up to you, the grower, to make it happen. To be sure about the genetics, always grow Fl hybrid seeds, which can be found in any quality seed catalog and are the strongest and fastest-growing.
Culture. or how the plant is grown, is the other half of the equation. (n general, the more ideal the growing conditions and the less stress a plant suffers, the healthier that plant will be, including producing bigger and fatter buds. So you have to set up a growroom with ideal conditions. The temperature should stay around 75°F during the day and 65°F to 70°F at night. The humidity level in the vegetative room should stay around 60%, and in the flowering room around 50%. A good vent fan in the growroom will keep fresh, C02-rich air in contact with the foliage.
Plenty of HID light with an efficient reflective hood will also be necessary; hang one 400- to 600-watt lamp per square meter (40 by 40 inches) of growroom floor space. You’ll also need an efficient hydroponic or soil growing system. Stick to the same fertilizer brand for the entire crop and carefully follow the manufacturer’s intructions. If you have any problems at all with the fertilizer schedule, contact the store where you bought it and ask the people there for help: Often, the solutions to poor growth have to do with local water conditions.
But always remember this general rule: If you keep the conditions in your growroom optimum and consistent, you’ll grow healthy plants and harvest big, fat buds!
