Whelp! Week 6flower, small budds (heavy training)

[Friakora]

Hey guys, recently joined and i was wondering if someone could help me. I might be wrong but i think my buds are a bit small for week 6 flower.
I am still a newbie, hoping to get some advice.

Running a micro grow
150watt led
1 p superskunk
Soilgrow

Side notes
1i cropped them around the end of the flower stretch week 3
2defoiled at week 4
3 had to perform an emergency crop at week 5
4feeding small amounts of nuts once a week.
5 nute burn on leaf in the pic occured early in flower but got resolved

They are at 6th week right now but looks like week 4. It might be the heavy training done on the plant.
My question is..

Do you guys think the heavy training might have stunted the growth a while? If so then would i have to wait the period the plant got stunted? Or will it be done in the usual 8-9 weeks??

Really hoping they will grow up the next nodes an form a few colas



Pic, thanks for your help

Is this 150w LED 150w draw from the wall or advertised wattage?

[Friakora]

The 150wattage is advertised

The light is probably the problem then mate

As M_C stated, your light is not good enough to be brutaly honest with you mate. Try a 200-250, it will make a difference. Not huge but some. MH and HPS ftw.

Thanks for telling me guys, will look more into hps, opted for led since i have height problems.

Heard once that hps penetrates furthur..

Regarding harvest should i throw a week or 2 ontop of 8?

[M_C]

Harvest by the trichomes :-

[Friakora]

Thanks on the light part and trichs i knew that already but i mean do you guys think that another reason for it seeming like a 4 week old plant is the cropping and defoiling at the given timestamps?

And will i get a decent yield?

Thanks for all your help tho everyone

Theirs other factors too, but 70-80% being the light. Pot size, nutes, general care, topping etc all have an effect. You seem to be doing fine though, just need some more power. Many people think MH & HPS is expensive but it really is not. W is W whether its a 250 CFL or 250 HPS, they consume the same power. I guarantee you will see a huge difference and it will only cost around £70-80 total (250w)

I have an 'expensive' Lumatek 250w dimmable ballast, cost me £85. The 250w bulbs (Sunmaster, dual spectrum) on ebay are about £15 - so £100 all in at top of the range £70/80 should be easily achieved
