What light are you using? They do look a little lankey and have stretch between nodes. Your PPM is right follow the chart in the FAQ. Dirt farming is way different then hydroponic growing. The nutrients are way different.

why so big? I DON'T KNOW ?

they look good in veg state {lots of bush} 400MH
went to 12/12 {1000 hordux bulb} with veg nurt for a week ,after that week some small branches fell off
and they could barly hold themselfs up,
change water ,nurts to 70% flower 30% grow,ebson salt every other change
They shot up like hell,
they started to pop flower out where there was nothing
light was 2-3 feet away,

now light is 18 inches away {Top of room}
should I still keep nurt ups ?
any special additive to bost buds ?
what makes big buds ?
what do u think , to much of something? or not enough?
138ppm tap water,then added ebsolnd salt{roots are white}
what happends with too much mg.
OR
is it there big, so keep feeding them ?{going to switch HG liquid} any problem with changes nurt type? durning grow?

will the plant grow big with little buds?{not what I am looking for}

what the best thing to try?

Will it take longer to finish being its big ?

soil dude pounds on me every day

yo red baby-
you need top get that light closer.. why you ask... well it goes something like this...

A 1000 watt bulb at 12 inches may give 140,000lumes... that same light at 18 inches only gives 70,000 lumes... YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS is SOME serious SHIT BROOOOOOOOOO : )
When the light is more than 12 inches from the plant, the plants STRETCH...

You my friend are NOW aqn expert on stretchng plants... (sorry) : )
Now for the BAD news... Your buds will be twice as big when they are 12 inches or less from the light source...

Now you can do some crazy ZANDOR shit and help your plants.... You could go out and purchase a T-5 (or any light) and put it on the floor facing up... or verically along the height of your plants.. This would SIGNIFIGANTLY increase your yield.

The trick to getting your HPS close to your plants is movement.. Either the bulb has to move or the air has to be moving.. ideally both will be moving... Ideally your light should be ..................4-8 inches from the tops of your plants... This requires some serious fan action.. but your buds will be HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

2-3 feet is totally unacceptable and it explains evertything about the look of your plants... YOU haven't grown marijuana... your a god damn tree farmer!!!!!!!!!! Your gonna need a fucking axe for those monsters... ahhahahahaha

Your plants look GREAT.. ovious that you LOVE them....and you should be proud that they grew so big.. but don't ever do that shit again.. Unless your name is Zandor the Great...

can we see some more pics..

: )
