Clawing or just genetics? any info would be great

[Pants]

Got a few Autos going. They are in FFHF with 20/4 300w at about 24”. I was afraid I may have over-watered on first water due to them being in 5gal pots to avoid transplants. Larger plant (Runtz) seems happy and fine, 2 smaller plants (THC Bomb) & (White Widow) are showing some clawing in their baby leaves. Curious is they may be strain related or if it may be due to light, watering, or how they are absorbing the FFHF. Temps are around 72° and humidity is around 50 Any advice would be great! Thank you.

Also to note, since I had felt I over watered about 2 weeks ago, I did not add any water until they were almost wilting bone dry, added a minimal amount of water today as well

Yup.

Water less frequently with more water. 5-gallon pots can take about a gallon. Be sure to add water slowly.

overwatering is not the act of giving to much water at one time , overwatering is watering to frequently and not allowing the soil to dry out in between watering

yeah i’ve watered 3 times in 4 weeks, about a half gallon each the first time and maybe a pint each other time. Soil is bone dry 4” in- should i wait even more?

That information is gold. Took me a minute to figure that out still struggling a little bit

For some reason, it’s not in a new growers face

You should def do that
Wet dry cycles are crucial.
You can wait until your plant and pot feel like the equivalent of styrofoam.
It will get this light before a dry back wilt occurs.
A simple way to gauge

Also, your plants are showing mag deficiency due to hot lights and output %
turn down your lights 15-25% or raise them.

I veg in my veg room at 40% output, at 3 ft from canopy.

I just read that thing. Good info. I got 1 plant curling. I'm thinking to much nitrogen. It's weird all others are fine. I did same to all. It's my only plant in plastic pot.

 

[GNick55]

no such thing as hot soil in a bag, maybe if your constantly overfeeding that maybe considered hot soil,.
your issue is watering too frequently causing the amended soil to release more nutrients,.

I see a moderator does not know ffof soil. Its loaded with nitrogen. Lot of people start there baby plants in other soil before putting it into ffof to prevent burn . Yeah its funny right . HAHA . Who does not know or used ffof soil ? They clearly do not go to hydro stores
Will ffof burn all plants ? No but how many post i have seen people having burnt clones in the soil. Its usually fresh rooted clones that have issues .
