    Default Thin and spaced out buds.

    Hi guys,

    (Just realised that bumping an update on my old post may not have been ok on the forum - apologies)

    My new problem is the thin and spaced out buds my plant developed. I used a 600w LED, 19L Oxypot hydro system, desk fan in tent with pc fan extracting at the top.
    AK Autoflower seeds from a reputable source. I used General hydros Floragrow x3 (at half the recommended amounts on the bottle). Plant has big strong white roots. There was the accidental topping preflowering but the plant bounced back amazingly.

    I doubt I can fix the buds now? How can I avoid this in the future? Also will the buds still be smokable?

    What does your light actually draw from wall. May not be powerful enough. Looks foxtailed as well.

    Your biggest proublame is your light, not enough for what you trying to grow. But you still will get some good pot from what you are doing.

    is it because the light was to close to the canopy or because the light is crap?

    I just read the foxtailing kills potency especially if its due to overheating.

    It has A small effect, but not enough to banded your grow over. Just A little more weed at harvest.
