Help with slow flowering

Hello , my baby is on day 49 since breaking soil and she started flowering around 20 days ago, but buds sites stopped growing like a week ago so i don’t know if this is something normal or if she has some kind of issue. I was growing her outdoor but i switched to indoor bc she got too tall . Any advice please? Im using 4 led bulbs total wattage of 200W

This is definitely because though you may have a 200 watts of power going into your lights the output is still inadequate. Cfl bulbs are extremely inefficient. Needing about 4 to 5x the amount of power or bulbs than those led grow bulbs you have. Those are an ok start but are more for low light plants or filler for an area not quite getting enough natural light.

Bud production is one of the plants most exhaustive cycles in the plants life. Its switching from growing tall and bushy to 100% bud production and in order to create those nice stacked dense buds you need 1 thing overall and thats an adequate light source.

I know you're probably on a budget but if you're only doing 1 to 2 plants at a time they make some pretty inexpensive 100w-120w quantum board style led light. Provides plenty of photosynthetic light rather than just general light. Your looking for lights with a balanced output between 350nm-750nm or with leds at least a good balance of warm and cool white diodes. I run an ac infinity board style light, but they make the same kind in a 100w version that is plenty powerful for 1 plant. And i think its around 100 bucks too. You WILL see an improvement if you upgrade your lights.
