Never feed plain water with MC .... there are no microbes in your soil to bring the plant nutrients, whether they are there or not.... Just give her less if you think 3g is still too much.

I think I’ll give it 3 as I don’t think a bit of too much nitrogen will hurt her

 

[bluter]

the claw won't go away at this point. best practice is keep to the recommended feed schedule.

if you haven't read through it before use this feeding / watering guide.

The Proper Way To Water A Potted Plant

The Proper Way to Water a Potted Plant Also covered: the importance of pH and why we successively up-pot How to Water Over the last several years I have put a lot of study into this, and I feel that I can now define the proper way to water a potted plant. Keep in mind that this discussion...

it's possible you are feeding too soon and too often.

As I have spent much of your time on this discussion I decided to give her 3 grams of MegaCrop today as she just started to wilt. I will give her another 3 and then increase weekly til 4 grams. Good leaning experience but have good folks like you helping! Maybe I should just stick with Autoflowers

I need to clarify. I will increase in 1/4 gram increments. That would be 4 weeks on top of 6 weeks yesterday. She should be done by that end.

photos are much easier on a new grower. if you go wrong in autos they often die before you can fix the issue.

That’s what I’ve grown on and off for 10 years we’re Autoflower

Thank you @bluter

Good Morning All

For those who are dealing with excessive heat like Dallas, stay hydrated.

Rocket fuel is on Day 45 when lights were flipped to 12-12. She appears to have taken 3 grams of MegaCrop and no Bud Explosion.

Thoughts anyone? @bluter @GainesvilleGreen @Sueet @garybo

 

[Sueet]

Looks good, but I think she is going to show you that she wants that other half gram back, lower leaves are looking paler than they were. It is also possible that it is just her complaining about the size of the pot, which would be fair from her perspective

 

[Ice cream]

For a photo she didn’t stretch much. She just may wave for more food

Good Morning All

Today my little lady is on Day 48 from when lights were flipped to 12-12.

I gave her 4 grams of MegaCrop and 1/2 gram of Bud Explosion. My experience tells me another 3-4 weeks til harvest

Thoughts anyone? @garybo @Sueet @GainesvilleGreen @marcus611a @bluter

 

[Sparkey224]

Yeah, she still has some time left my friend. Think your color is fine for being 48 days since 12/12. Definitely, you can start lowering your ppms now.

Some folks like smoking "green" plants. Around 50-56 days I'll stop all nutrients and feed plain water with runoff (15%) for two weeks.

Thank you @GainesvilleGreen . What do you think about removing around the mail cola? I want them to start putting on weight.

I wouldn't remove anymore leafs at this point. Looks like you cleaned her up well last time..

Weight will come by the right harvest time. Picking early will screw u on yield too. Can't force feed her for weight imo.

Just for future reference OP.. once the plant claws, it won’t go away. Those leaves have become permanently damaged and will never revert back. The leaves themselves may grow larger and make it appear as if the claw is easing, it’s not though, it’s just size perception.

If you fix the issue, the new growth will not claw, but the stuff that’s already clawed is set. While it is ugly, it’s not the end of the world. When the plant needs extra nutrients it not getting it will go for the damaged ones first, so now you have an early warning system. If you notice your clawed leaves showing new issues/deficiencies that’s telling you she’s needing something she isn’t getting.

Like double G said, Never remove damaged leaves except for very specific instances. Those damaged leaves serve as a buffer for you now and the plant will take those out first as needed. If you remove the damaged leaves she’ll just start taking from your non damaged leaves.

 

[Sparkey224]

It's not the time to "over-correct," by feeding the plant more nutrients.
Absolutely, no more N or little . With that said, overall nutrient needs to be lowered at this stage

 

[Keffka]

Looking back through the posts I’m fairly confident the Bud Explosion you added is what caused your issues. Your plant was gorgeous at Day 20, and almost as soon as you added the BE your plant started clawing

 

[Ice cream]

I think by using MegaCrop, I can`t reduce nitrogen, only dosage. I believe you are correct in stating that the Bud Explosion caused the issue. @GainesvilleGreen @Keffka @Sueet


Nothing is simple! Great hobby though......

don't lower your feed. follow the MC schedule. you never reduce at this stage in MC. ever.
if you reduce you'll crash the plant.

stick to MC alone if you don't have enough experience to use it with the BE.
