This is a 2 part question for all of you experienced growers out there. I know the ladies look good, Im sure the finished product will be stellar but Id still like to know what makes them do what they do.
So my question is why the top colas have this weird leafy growth, some 3 blades and not the ones coming right from the bud but some that are extended so you can clearly see there are 3 blades and look sort of deformed. They are also scrunching and twisting slightly... it just doesnt look right. If it was happening to all of them I would say that maybe its the strain but for some reason maybe 2-3 plants arent doing this and on almost all of them the side branches dont do it either.
Here is a normal top cola and side branch
here are the deformed looking top colas
I have been feeding 5ml/gallon of calmag per feeding because of an early problem but I have stopped that for the last feeding. Calmag has extra N and I wonder if this maybe a problem.
I was also PHing much too high for coco at 6.4 which I am lowering to 6.2 this feeding and 6.0 the next. There is 3/4 coco and 1/4 soil so I dont know if it should be lower.
I also thought it could possibly be a light leak but the plants closest to where I assumed there was a leak were not as affected as others that were random in the garden. I have since also covered these semi light leaks that were not even big enough for me to see my hand 2 inches from my face.
Everyone is telling me they look fine but if so why would this only happen to the top colas??
Second question is how far along do you think they look? Do they look 26 days from harvest? Some people are saying they only look 3 weeks in when I am now in my 5th week so I would like to know now so I can adjust my feeding schedule.
These are cotton candy from federation seeds, 56 day flowering time
