Ok guys they where just thirsty. They shaped right back into shape. But I do have one more concern. My pitbull kush is clawing at the tips? What is causing this. I use 3 tbs per gallon and I feed once a day. Here are some pics. My other plant is just fine and is on same feeding schedule. I wonder if I'm over feeding with floranova grow? I stoped like 1 week ago and was only watering so I can start with my flower nutes but I'm wondering what's wrong? Why the bear claws???? Like I said only on one of my plants?

That is WAY too much fertilizer.

View attachment 422293 So I woke up this morning to this!!! I been noticing that my plants have been clawing at the tips and today I see this. I thought I was over watering to I stoped for 2 days and today I find this. Can anyone chime in on their thoughts. I use floranova at 3tbs every watering. I been using nothing but water for past week to give it a chance to eat up nutes. But now I don't know what I need to do to help her.
My other plants are doing just fine?

I'm not reading that right, am I? When I was using Floranova, I was using ONE TEASPOON per gallon.

Her roots are very hot, she's very hot. Get that pot covered with something before she starts dying on you. It'll start with yellowing on the lowers that looks just like N-. Give her some humidity if you can, too.

I flushed her with five gallons of water yesterday and I placed her in a somewhat shaded are but still gets some sun. I have started to see little bit of yellow spots on some of the lowers. I hope the flush will help. We will see what happens.

Thanks all u guys for taking time from ur farming to help me with my questions I realy do appreciate it. But I have one more question. So the past few days I have flushed my plants because it's freaking me out that I may have over fertilized my plants. They are showing signs of improvement. That one with the claws was the real bad one. It kinda stopped growing, but today it showed new growth wich is good. But now I'm noticing that I have these little bugs. Not a lot of bugs but a few here and there. Is this a bug that I should be worried about? Here is the pics of the bugs. They seam to be around the hairs growing around the bud materials.

Not sure what that is but moths and grasshoppers are BAD

Those look like leafhoppers and another kind of bug that I have. I'm not seeing any damage on my girls outside some areas on the leaves that appear to have sap sucked out, and a couple that have been munched. I don't worry too much about the cosmetic stuff. As the buds start stacking (you'll know it when you see it) you're going to need to start treating for budworms, which are likely the larvae of white moths. The usual organic method is a rotation of Bt and Spinosad. Take care when using these products, the Spinosad especially should only be used at night after pollinators have stopped foraging. I don't know if dry residue is harmful to them. My own goal is to get bug netting up, but the cost, the time, the lack of help, etc, etc, etc... you know how it is. :/

Yup, for clones it's not too early to flower. It depends on the strain, and perhaps how old the mother was when cloned. I recently did see some of my clones that were flowering in may, and not grow too big, start to re-vegetate. However, someone put them out too early.

Yours look great though!

@Seamaiden - Aren't the white moths pollinators too? You want to avoid Bt in areas with endangered butterflies and moths. What about the cabbage butterflies, are they a problem for cannabis, and laying eggs on it?
 
#32
Ok I'm totally new to this, so what is Bt? Sorry for my ignorance.
 
#33
Sorry! Bt stands for Bacillus thuringiensis. It's a bacteria that gives many bugs a REALLY bad stomach ache. To death. Unfortunately, there are now Bt-resistant corn borers, thanks to the release of Bt-corn two or three years ago.

I don't know whether or not the white moths are pollinators. Do you know whether or not it's the residue that's dangerous? What I've taken away from the papers is that spraying while it's windy is the problem (drift).

Now I have to look up cabbage butterflies!

Cabbage Butterflies are one of my main "worm" problems--
along with Skippers...

Ok so here are some more pics of these bugs and of the spots they like to be in.

They're starting to flower, but they're not quite stacking yet, they're likely still going to be pushing out some vegetative matter (leaves).

I also have flushed 2 times past week and have only watered inbetween flushes and I don't see an improvement on my plant from the bear clawing? I also notice a bluish green haze on the big leaves? Is there anything else I can do to help her?

your plants look and seem fine to me, the one with the clawing looks healthy, I personally wouldn't be worried.

If you can plant them in the ground it surely wouldn't hurt them though, especially for keeping the roots cooler.

Those little bugs you show a pic of don't seem to bother cannabis, my daughter and I think they are pretty cool little guys. I wouldn't be concerned there either.

A product sold under the name Dipel Pro is the best source of effective bt I have found for the cost.

I think it may take a while to see the clawing stopped. I would simply use water only, don't worry about flushing anymore. I would also not worry about the color of the leaves at this point.

Aye, but don't you need an operator's permit to buy it (in California at least)?
