8 weeks into flower, and this happens...

I had an issue like that last year. I have had light leaks before that never caused a problem. I kinda blamed it on Kool Bloom. Have you used any KB by any chance? I am still curious about that.

Fallowing.

I have a feeling your ferts contain a decent amount of nitrogen. I see some pretty severe tip burn on some leaves and I'm thinking that too much nitrogen is getting rhe plant to try to reveg. not that you dont need some nitrogen in flower but too much is never good.

I've used kool bloom(liquid) for about 2yrs now. Never has caused any revegging.

I was thinking though, Could it be because the plant was Fimmed, and i snagged one of the secondary fims "not a main cola" and it broke, so I ended up cutting that 1 fim off like 4 days ago, but it still has all the rest.

no

That sure looks like a light leak, when I reveg flowered plants that's exactly how they grow. I do my light manually then that way there's no doubt it dark when it's supposed to be.

This could possibly be the answer, but I'm running a 2-7-7 Nute "Best I can get in my area as of right now." I increased the nutes slightly before the revegging appeared, and I am now backing back down to the original nutrient ratio...


I also think people missed the post I made earlier, I cut off one of the Fims because I snapped it by accident slightly, so it started dieing off so I plucked it. But it wasn't one of the main fims.. so it could possibly be stress vegging from that maybe ? Never seen it happen before, but never broke off a fim before either.

what do you mean by broke off a fim? do you mean you broke the stem under one of the sites that you fimmed?

Make sure your equipment doesn't have any lights, like power strips, fans, de/humidifiers, timers etc. etc. etc. that are not green. I doubt it would do this much damage but I wouldn't rule it out.

well the bright side is you can take some clones off and grow it again! lol.. strange man ive never heard of reveg without a light leak, even under stress. do you have any digital equipment in your grow room? on my first grow one of my plants went into reveg from my air conditioners small screen light.

Small light leaks, minor status lights (switch on power strip) or any other miniscule amounts of light will NOT cause this to happen, frankly not to be rude, but one would have to be an idiot to think they would. When I was 16 I grew in nothing more than a closet, room lights and TV lights were almost always on, the worst that happens is a small harvest. Some people just read an exaggeration and amplify it.

That being said I personally have no clue what could cause your problem, I would like the idea of a bad or misused digital timer but your other plants are unaffected, maybe just a bad egg...or seed

EDIT: big light leaks can, but it has to be like a door cracked 2 inches with enough light to see clearly in the room with no other light

I turn lights on in the room all the time. I actually think the green lights are bad because a lot of time people will not worry about them being on and forget about them. My friend used a green light and his plants directly under the green light looked like shit. I even turn on a light in the grow room and cut some clones and turn it back off. once they are deep into flower anything under an hour will not hurt at all

for some reason I do no like people that use green lights

The light during dark time only would matter during flower, I hope you're not cloning a flowering plant.

Also those green head lamps are an awesome alternative to the overheads that can sometimes accidentally be left on

I cut clones 3 or 4 days into flower. before they have flowers on them. Theres been times where I had to water when the lights were off. I do not like to do this but hey sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do. I will turn the light on and water. even in flower. I guess a lot of people have weak ass strains.

Try doing one with out turning the lights on, you'll love it
