Had some low PH issues with my soil.
I was using about 2 cups of dolomite lime in about 45 gallons of soil the last couple of times when I re amended the mix and it finally became a problem this grow.
Each plant was top dressed with about 1 1/2 tbl. per gallon of soil with dolomite lime about 5 weeks ago, all recovered well for the moment.

It was a clone from a plant that I grew from seed.
And it occasionally makes leaves like these:

Gotcha I dig plants that do the odd leaf thing. My CNC f2's and the DDB's have what I call "bonus leaves". They don't come with the sexual confusion though lol. I assume you've checked everything environmental, so what are you left with?

I'm not saying the strain sucks because I've grown it before and like it a lot. Not gonna ask Rusty for a replacement.

But I will say that it seems to be more sensitive to stress than average. (My environment is moderately stressful by default.)

And I only say that because I've got 5 other strains in that room that aren't showing balls.

How about high salts?
20200128_164444.jpg

I been hitting a set of clones,with constant high ppm(the soil run off has been in the 1800) these plants are in coco-loco.
This plant is showing the extremely high amounts of salts in the plant,being released through the leaves.
Results are:
Slow growing plants,that look healthy.
Lime green new growth.

Now they get a full flush waterhose style,the runoff ppm sits at 300 now,see how they react to this treatment.

I can not wait to get back to organic-ish growing

That looks wild gen .
I am going to see my homie Jeremy Silva owner of build a soil in montrose Colorado next week and stock up on that good good .treat your seeds right imo

Some of my best grows came from products on his site.
Definitely going to stock up on some things.

Not gonna lie, I didn't even know you could make plants excrete salts like your pic above. And the pics in the link really makes me think. In the back of mind I've been telling myself for a while that I need to get back to organics too, this is motivating..... It said that was half strength nutes too, imagine what to yours look like under microscope lol.

Same here,I'm still learning and will never stop..

It's crazy,no leaf tip burn,just green..
Until that salt drys up,then the burn sets in.

Yeah,what would the buds looks like?

First time I ever did a real test like this,the "older" genetics/cultivars in this test are not showing the results of extreme excrement of salts.

Have you tried stressing them with light leaks and big humidity/temp fluctuations?
