Day 29 - looking better!

Day 29 - Topped 2nd time and supercropped both mains.

Day 30 - Incredible how the leaves realign themselves to get light. Can't believe it's the same plant after less than a day.

Looking much better so far today at beginning of week 5. Unsure of how I want to approach the LST and I am too nervous to supercrop. I will probably bend each new main in opposite directions to make a flat canopy. 1/3 - Topped 2nd time and supercropped / LST'd both mains in opposite directions. 1/4 - Plant recovered beautifully from the supercropping. Can't even tell it's the same plant! Some of those leaves were VERTICAL last night. 1/6 - Still showing overwatering and N tox. That's what I get for not popping up properly over time and going into the final medium. You CAN overwater coco, it seems. Dropped CalMag to 0.5 Tsp/gal. to help lower N even further. Tap water is ~200 ppm with Ca/Mg as well. 1/7 - Watered today after 3 1/2 days of no watering. Surface was bone dry and pot felt considerably lighter. Not sure why it still looks overwatered. Hopefully fixing N tox (slowly it seems) will help? New growth seems better, but the leaves are still so damn wrinkled.

Grow Questions

Do you think I'm showing signs of N toxicity towards the end of week 3? Input welcome!

Leaves. Curl down

HighTVanswered grow question 6 years ago

Hey there @NewbGrower87 I Do not see any signs of Nitrogen Toxicity. Generally N tox shows itself in 3 main ways. The most obvious is whats called the 'claw' where the leaf tips bend down aggressively. The second thing to look for is a Dark Dark green color and while your plant does look a healthy green from the pictures I wouldn't say they are dark enough for a N toxicity. The last thing to look for is one of the more obvious signs and that is shiny fan leafs. N Toxicity causes the Fan leaves to get really dark and shiny looking before causing the 'claw'. So because of these reasoning I do not think you have an N toxicity at all. (If you start to see signs of N tox DO NOT drop Cal-Mag like you hinted at and instead lower the Micro a little.) 😎

N tox in full swing. Lowered feeding from 1 Tsp to 3/4 Tsp Cal/Mag, and Grow/Micro from 1/2 Tsp each to 1/4 Tsp each. Hoping this helps correct. Is it possible that overwatering also contributed to excessive N uptake? I let the coco dry out a lot more (~4 days) this time.

Your feeding strength is too much. At this point you want 300 to 400 PPM. Base water plus cal mag should be around 250 PPM and the rest your nutes.

What do you guys think about the praying leaves? The internet seems to disagree. Most people seem to think it's a good thing. Everything is in high gear and the leaves are using all of the energy to absorb light. Some camps say it's too much light and it's stressing out.

There are different opinion about the subject. Some says that the leaves are praying when there is to much light , some says that it is because the plants are healthy and happy but I remember that a long time ago I have read an article about it and it was linked to the plant sweating : to keep more water and avoid sweating they are doing that and the opposite when they want to sweat but I am not 100% sure about it as it was a long time ago. And last thing it could also be because of a light too high so the plant is trying to reach it , you will have a different answer from each growers 😊👍

@The_Projexx, Hey man, thanks! The other plant is an auto that's just finishing up. I got impatient and popped this VK seed a bit too early. I thought the auto would finish sooner (first grow on the right there, misjudged the time, lol). I've been playing fun little games with the light height trying to maximize the exposure for the flowering plant and keep it reasonable on the vegging one. Lesson learned for next time.

Thanks guys! I did notice the very slight cupping, and it's definitely more pronounced on one of the first fan leaves (bottom of the plant) and the curling is slightly more aggressive. I think I might drop the Micro to half the current strength for next feeding and see if that improves it. I might be "riding the line" between healthy and toxicity, but hopefully at this rate it will just end up growing into the nitrogen amount. Do you think it's overwatered? I will probably transplant next grow instead of being in the final pot, but I figured the creasing in the leaves is because they are still growing? I know the 3-set fan leaves straightened out quite a bit after they stopped growing outward.
