Holy hell, 1000W HPS on these plants. The light is doing more harm than good, at least, put it at max height up the ceiling of your tent.
If plants get too much light they grow less, not more. Same with fertilizer. More doesn't equate better. Not saying they can't take it but needs a long veg, big plant for all of that.

The second pic, the clawing, it looks as if watered too early. These big pots usually are still moist in the midst when plants are still small. With little plants and big pots usually better to wait a more on irrigation

Oh really.. Is it still too close? :(

Okay i moved light a bit higher. Also there was huge fan running on them and shaking them.
Clawing started yesterday night. So i watered them 3 days ago and these pics right after watering today. So, it was clawing before watering. As i said it's started yesterday night.

Tried to do LST on Autopilot. It was highest stress for me.

Bruh. 2 gallons minimum. For a 5 gallon pot. 2 liters is not enough.

I did extra 2 liters yesterday. So total 4 liters and almost last 2 liter quickly run off. Thanks for advice.

Today this is how she reacted to LST. 15 hours after bending her. She looks like she liked it :)







And here is W.W. #1 :)




This is W.W. #2. I don't know why she is so small. They grow in same conditions.

Okay 3 days later from saturation, when i put my finger 3-4cm deep top of soil it was little moist. So i saturated all pot again. It took me 2 to 2.5 liters of water again. Runoff bit was too much but most water went to sides of pot.

This is Autopilot XXL day 22. Her leaves bit curling down from tips. Too much nitrogen?

Nursery pots work much better than fabric pots bc they hold water longer, the sides don't dry out and you get a better drain.
