43 days since first pistols and 12/12. I topped her feb 25th and a bunch more through the end of March. Vegged on 500 true cfl watts and a mixture of K's. The 400hps started 12/12. Always used fox farms grow big/tiger bloom bumping up to 1100ppm. All the bigger leaves on each cola are burning up half way up the blade, all of them except for 4 new 6" lightly budded stems that have grown fast off of the lower branches. All the new growth has 3 and single bladed leaves. She is my first grow and bag seed. I've stressed her many times up till now in the learning curve. I even split the main stem 1.5 inches but with tight electrical tape it never even Lost a step. Heavily areated with proper ph every day. Sits in a 10" net with a farm kit ring and pebbles. Somebody gimme a freebie here.

Need some better pics than that. Can you check your roots? My best guess is maybe some root rot going on.

Burning it. Flush it quick. Then make sure temps are high and air is moving while it drys which will take a while....then do it again. Stop feeding so high. Your almost done anyway. If your all ff line with dirt your probably waaay over feeding it, especially if your feeding every water. Itll be ok. Jist ride it out.

The misshaped leaves tell me it went back into veg at some point. (Or you have/had light leaks)
It never recovered enough and is not stable yet..(Still throwing single/dbl and triple leaf set's. It is telling you it's stable when it throws 5 leaf sets and not before!)
You put it in bloom too soon for one (as it wasn't stable/unstressed yet)...And you might as well run it at 10/14 or less to strengthen the blooming and shorten your finish time.....
I would not increase nutrients and only "feed" it every other watering!

Nice that you used bag seed to learn on!!!!!

Doc

Oh, yeah,,,,,drop the cfl's or get it in closer during your veg and use it as a supplement to, and not as an alternative to the 400.....Use it during bloom too, no matter what the Kelvin range is....

Just gotta love the flushing guys....
Just water problems away with straight pH'ed water.....flushing is what most should do to their heads!
Flushing is for salty coco...
so what do you do when you acidently over feed your plant take the fooker to emerganct room cos anyone would flush

First off I don't "acidently over feed" as I run water only organic soil grows....

you probly dont but newbies do all the time you saying not to flush just becouse you dont
We don't because we have been doing it for years and know that flushing can lead to more problems then it will fix in soil....
So, like I said above - simply water the plant with pH'ed water for like 7-10 days and restart feeding - properly..

Now you know too!

Do you shower in that tub with it?

What kind of soap do you use:confused:bongsmilie

Do you shower in that tub with it?

What kind of soap do you use:confused:bongsmilie
if I could I probably would but I do spray them down on occasion like they've been in a rainstorm. Then turn the light down 50% until they dry they seem to like it because they stand straight up when their dry with their leaves reaching for the light.
