Why is my plants new growth so small, twisted and lime green?

[Davidweed13]

Strain is GMO Punch.
-Medium is ocean forest soil.
-2x 100 watt spider farmer leds
-Using big bloom, grow big weekly (up to now only a half gal or less of diluted nutes so I don’t think it’s excess??)
-Cal mag was applied to see if it was the issue but no noticeable changes
-FIMMED 7 days ago
-other plant doing fine with roughly the same treatment

Ph seems to be fine but getting calibration solution for my blue lab pen on Friday to do it again cause I think I messed it up first time

Think it could be overwatering as I flushed last week heavily and then refed a few days later with grow big but it still wasn’t dry -very slow growth -small under developed budsites compared to my other plant -new growth is green -some tips have burn which makes no sense as I’ve only fed very lightly -switched to watering with distilled water this week for Ph balance

Any tips or ideas appreciated. I have a fan on the soil on low to help dry it out as I really over did with water.

you're right about overwatered, but i see what happened. let it dry now though, no need to aim the fan at the soil, just let it dry naturally. it will take time.

chill with the calmag, its not needed. soil has plenty of calcium and your food and tap water has it also.

however, you could use some epsom salt (magnesium) added to water/feed solutions. if you're giving food now, need to give enough for about 25% runoff so excess salts dont accumulate in the soil. dont want the pots to sit in the runoff.

air filter belongs at the top of the tent where the heat is, a dust cover will extend its life

happy growin

You got a lil nutrient lock up going on just keep it simple and put an inch thick of worm castings on the top and only water with just phed water no nutes for a few days and she will bounce right back let those microbes do the dirty work its safe and it will work guaranteed ...

Or ... similar idea .... if you have something like "Real Grower's Recharge" or "Roots Organic Microbe Charge" in your grow kit, brew a tea with the microbe soil conditioner. It will provide the same benefits of worm castings but works faster. Aerate with an air-stone prior to use.

You don't think that fimming them had caused the crinkled leaves? I have noticed that the next few leaves that grow on mine after my topping, or failed fim attempts.(don't ask). I learned not to over water right in the beginning. Also learned how you can dump a whole half gallon of water in a half gallon pot and watch it run out and pour out the dirt and it will all be dry. There was a really good video on yt about over wateri g I think from 'welcome to the grow tent' on YouTube.. not sure the rules of posting links and idk if that would be advertising or something. I'm new. And a new grower too.. I can attest to the recharge, and I like fishshit also. I'll alternate but I like the proven results behind fishshits microbe blend.. guaranteed to boost terpenes, thc % and yield. Back to the point I just have noticed crumpled leaves each time I've cut the main stem of my plants.
