Need some input please
My syrup is in a 3.5 gallon bucket and 2 weeks ago was it's last feeding. I filled it up with 2.5 gallons of water. It's normal drinking rate was 2.5 gallons about every 7 days.
Since it's last feeding it has only drank a very small portion of the water and the buds have not seemed to swell any larger than they were a week ago.
this plant is going on week ten and there are still white hairs with what seems like under developed buds but most of the leaves remain a healthy green with no indication that it is dying.
This plant should be done right? why has it stopped drinking water and what should be my next step.
I was thinking to just change out the water and add some final phase for a flush, but if it's not drinking water...well..idk
my other 2 plants are sucking up water at a vigorous pace, but they are photos and much bigger.
can anyone give me some input on what my next step should be please? syrup has been going on a 12/12 light schedule for the past month now so i was expecting a slow growth rate but is the slow water intake normal too?
