This is from today , watered on Sunday but I was afraid I over watered , let sit for 3 days now and is close to completely dry , the leaves seem a bit droopy from the last time just not sure from what exactly ! Water ph is about 6-6.5, feed last week decided not to feed today cause of the excess nitrogen showing ! Any ideas ?

They look lighter to me, maybe it's how the light is hitting them and how it came out in the photo but if not lighter is N deficiency, darker is abundance

When you do feed, what's the dose?

I feed every Wednesday now , water every two or three days depending on the dryness of the soil ! Should I up the feed ?

The dose is about 5tsp since it’s a 5 gallon pot !
 
Theres no excess n if anything it could do with more.

It looks like it got a good blast of p&k however is lacking in n

For the first two weeks off flower your better of using grow nutes as the plant is still vegging somewhat
 
I see a plant that needs to be watered and fed. Maybe the pic,,,, but I don't see to much "N" at all. As a plant stretches and goes into flower food and water uptake picks up. I see a good plant. I don't get it. Good Luck!
Thanks man I’m really trynna dial in ! I just watered today hopefully it’s not to much ! Didn’t feed but not I’m second guessing hahah! We’ll see but thanks man appreciate the help !

Maybe some worm casting ?? Lmk what you think !

That would help and do make sure the plants really need water before giving it. If you can try and lift the pots and feel the differences in weight from wet to dry. Best of luck, i've been growing a long time now and still error with not feeding enough N while they transition into flower. ☺️
 
root organic grow and bloom terp tea ! Just bloom for now tho since I flipped !
How long ago did you flip?

Your first few weeks should be at your veg feeding, the plant is in a transition phase and still needs the N it was getting during the veg stage.
After a few weeks from flip, start decreasing N and up the P and K.

My plants get N all the way to the end, just not as much of it. Even though I eventually cut out my "Grow" nutrients, the other nutes I'm feeding still have some N in them.

It’s been two weeks now yesterday! First week I switched feeding and this week I’ve only watered ! Honestly had no idea that I still had to feed as if I was in veg for first few weeks ! Thanks for letting me know that ! Do you recommend switching back to the veg feed ? And when to switch back ? Also got a dehumidifier on the way to help with excess humidity in the tent ! I did pick up some earth worm casting on my way home ! What do you think is the next best route here ?
 
Today update ! Humidity is a little high but I did order a dehumidifier to help !

I have never used worm castings logic would say yeah use it. I’m not going to advise you on something that I’ve never used personally.

I use guano I do have several different types of gunnao. My flowering guano is very high and p and doesn’t really have enough nitrogen for some more hungry plants so I’ll add a little bit of nitrogen rich guano when needed.

Someone did suggest adding worm castings
Sry bud that’s all I can offer
Unless I’ve use something myself I use don’t recommend it just because logic says so.
As cannabis can defy logic at times and I think it’s better to recommend something if you’ve actually used it and if you haven’t then don’t guess

looks a little overwatered, the calmag, probably would be good to use that right away on the next water.👍it should help get the leaf colour back in check before the flowers fully set in. you could let the plant dry out that extra day. before the next watering to. maybe youve just been watering a tad early. a few more days to dry in the middle of each watering would be good.

The top photo the plants dropping because it’s overwatered.

Itschesse94 is on the money again with the cali & observations.

Underwatered & they look like this.
( see how it’s shrivelled up )
 
Quick update ! They starting to look better for sure , I watered Sunday very minimal with calmag because I wanted to let soil dry until Wednesday so I can water again and let soil completely dry , I’m trying to figure out wether to feed this week or not , just give it time for the macronutrient to do its thing, any ideas lmk ! All your guys advice has been helpful , she’s definitely hanging in there ! Still playing with the dimmer lights as well don’t wanna cause stress but I’m trying to dial it in !
