My plants are 7 weeks into flowering and the buds don’t seem to be getting thicker. They look very open. Lots of tricomes but all clear coloured
Any advise would be great

Please be as complete as possible. If soil please tell us WHAT soil. WHAT light etc. It’s all important.
I found when my plants grow too big for thier containers, i get this very same problem. Loose larfy buds with minimal resin production. As well, i would need more info (exactly the list posted previously) to propperly diagnose the actual root of your issue!
But just looking at this picture reminds me of simillar problems i had with a plant that just wouldnt thicken out its buds. Turns out it was completely root bound andvthat is why nothing i did, helped!!
They are full of tricomes and very sticky but…
Zee we have chatted before about my plants if you remember. I’m growing in a kind of greenhouse environment and I sent you pics of my other plants
At first glance ,not enough window light ,maybe adding a light just for flowering. Lets get the pro’s in on this and see what they say
What kind of light would I need?
@dbrn32, @Hellraiser, @Cannabian, @Bulldognuts calling the troops to help out ,but they need info first

Thanks very much
And this is a pic of my sweet cheese growing in the same area that has just started showing flowering signs
It’s almost 2m tall
I remember now
My inexperienced 2 cents, the windows are blocking some UV lights.
@PurpNGold74 , do you know someone who does green house grows with autos .I think it’s a light problem. Plenty of light for Veg,But not so much for flower.
After scrolling through post I’d say the problem is not enough light for flowering plants. If the only light is coming from windows and no overhead light then I believe that is the issue.
To grow dense buds lights need to be fairly intense. So you need decide what kind of budget you would have for lighting.
I think those plants are doing way better that they should be given that they are window plants the cannabis plant like direct or filtered direct sunlight. Windows dont really provide enough hours for bomber bud development. You could get a decent HLG led to add the extra DLI ? Your buds will not get thick and plump with a low DLI. Other than that you could move them into the great outdoors to recieve more light.
