Still experiencing the CLAW?

yep, still have the claw. It's not getting any worse, and maybe just maybe a few leaves have straightened out
I only flushed for 48 hours, I'm sure if I did a whole week of flushing, it would look better..
I didn't want to starve it from nutrients... I've pretty much starved this plant it's entire life,
so i figured just adding the Bloom nutrients which is 5% nitrogen will not make the claw any worse, and after a couple weeks i'm hoping it will go away
it's eating nutrients slowly now, so i'm sure it doesn't have a nutrient or pH lockout

Well once they have been nute burned, it usually pretty hard to starve them. Do you have a ppm meter?yep, still have the claw. It's not getting any worse, and maybe just maybe a few leaves have straightened out

yep, the level has been stable- it was 600ppm when i changed the reservoir 3 days ago, and now its 545
i was told this is a tropical sativa, and is a low-feeder

If they go through this again, then check the ppm of your fresh water. Then check it after it's been pumped through the system for a while. If there's a substantial jump in ppm, then you know it was from over-nuteing.

Definitely a sativa. Man I totally under estimated the stretch of those bastards in flower. 8' foot ceiling and I had my light screwed directly into the ceiling.

Yep, hit the ceiling, so i had to take the table out, and improvise and make a shorter one so the buckets are lower to the ground
Just got done building a screen for scroggin, im going to put it up and train her in it tomorrow
Anyways, shes flushing right now, just for a few days, the ppm kept raising and pH was out of control, so i'm making sure there aren't any built up salts in the medium.
when i add more bloom nutes, i'll set the ppm at 400. hard to believe a plant this far into flowering wants so little nutrients, but im afraid even 400 will burn her. I don't think i'll be able to add anything else but bloom nutrients throughout the grow, no liquid karma for her, i don't think she could take the extra ppm
Heres some bud shots and a side view

gave her a liquid karma only diet for a day, and foliar sprayed the buds with some at 200ppm, she seemed to really like it. The reservoir went from shit water brown to completely clear the next day after adding the LK, and the ppm dropped by 50 after top offs Seemed to work so well i added some more after the top off.
Still just water and liquid karma only, no bloom nutes. I'm hoping she eats a lot tonight so I can add bloom nutes tomorrow, 540ppm currently after adding more liquid karma... i cant push the reservoir over 600 or she'll definitely get fried
Do these buds look okay for a pure sativa on day 36 flowering?
