Stunted growth.

[Jazzy0121]

Hi all. So I think I've stunted the growth of my girls buds by (perhaps over) defoliating during the first week of 12-12. I was trying to get my scrog perfect and fear I may have over done it with removing too many fan leaves. Now I'm about to hit week 5 of 12-12 and the buds are tiny. Only just starting to form with minimal white pistils. I figure im roughly 2 weeks behind where i would usually be at this point on any other grow ive done. So my question is this, will the buds still mature at the same time as usual ie, around the 10 week mark (I'm growing Amnesia Haze in coco under 600w hps) or will I be able to leave them an extra 2 weeks as if they had theoretically still been in veg state for them first 2 weeks of 12-12? Any help will be much appreciated and thanks in advance.

Let's see them mate, we can advise better that way.. You can add 1/2 weeks onto what breeders say anyway mate.

Ok mate. I wouldn't worry tbh, They're probably only 3/4 weeks into flower anyway so they probably have at least 4/5 weeks left & that is when they will pack on weight..

Ok so it all happens around when you start counting. So for me i flip and 2 weeks later i have fluffy heads. That is week one to me and then i go another 9 or 10 ontop of that for a couch locking cheese. So effectively 10-13 weeks of 12/12.

How long ago did you get fluff buddy? pistils up top i mean. If only a week ago then you have ages yet.

And yes you can knock your crop time back but usually this goes hand in hand with a decrease in yield.

What makes you think you stunted them, any pics. How old is the plant in total. any pics from just before flip?

I take up to 40 % leaf mass off plants at times even in the first 2 weeks of 12/12 just tipping into true flowering weeks.

But then my plants are bushy bastads and thats only way to get light down lower and have good air flow between plants

Would be great to see pics.
I'm also doing amnesia haze in coco.. I'm two n half weeks on 12/12.

Maybe they have salt build up an need a flush
But if you have been getting a good run off then
Maybe not.but I would flush at week 5 of flower
Even if all is good.nice looking plants mate top job
