@Mouse You sincerely took some effort in that comment and I praise you for it! The ratio I'm talking about is grow:micro:bloom. Currently my tank is filled with water at 0.2EC and 5.0pH. It feeds the RDWC slowly to combat the pH rise I had. Tomorrow I'm gonna take some buckets out to feed RDWC manually for a day, and add nutes to the tank. I think I'm gonna leave out grow completely and add half the recommended dose of calmag which is at 6%N, 5%Cal and 12%Mag. And then just bloom and micro part to get it at 0.7EC. How does that sound of a plan to you? :) The buds have been developing. A lot of branches have to be supported. I was busy for a couple of hours and I'm gonna need to buy more wire tomorrow. 3 big brenches had fallen over and pressed other branches flat like domino's.

The only thing what can happen bad now, it's overfeed. You are close if suspect nitrogen toxicity and they look a bit overfed. Have 2-3 watering of pure phed water and carry on from that point. I would half first feed after and in few runs would return to my desired/recommend feed amounts. Your plants look nice, far from any worry,everything should be fine. Now with tastes, if you carry on overfeeding, your buds won't explode, most likely you will have problems and aftermath of them after, buds stays harsh from heavy nuted weed, no flushes can help in some cases, but long curing can sort some taste issues. Golden rule in growing - Less is MORE !!! ;)) All the Best !

try removing the flora grow and just use flora bloom and flora micro for a bit to solve for excess N in the plants then add it back in a week later? You have some more time to flower out, the cure will also help reduce any excess nitrogen in the chlorophyll. Nitrogen is also mobile in plat tissue so as it grows out they should get a bit better. If your ratios are as follows Grow:bloom:micro 1:1:1 equal parts gives you a npk ratio of: 2.3-2.0-3.6 1:2:3 equal parts gives you a npk ratio of: 2.8-1.8-2.8 options that might work 0:2:1 equal parts gives you a npk ratio of: 1.6-3.3-3 0:3:1 equal parts gives you a npk ratio of: 1.2-3.7-3.2 1:2:1 equal parts gives you a npk ratio of: 1.7-2.7-3.7 Don't know if this helps, that's what I would do. I'd also purge the resviour system May need to brace plants if they stretched to much when they start to bulk up.

@growCN They look pretty much flowering to me... @Papa_T, That's what I have been doing the entire grow. They got dark in the beginning. I layed of the grow part of the GH 3part nutrients. Gave 1:1:1 and even then went a little low on the grow because I also added calmag, which has N in it and I had yellowing and rust spots on bottom leafs. Gave less and less N with each water change. When flipping I went to 1:2:3. Last water change I even layed of the calmag caus yellowing and burning tips didn't improve since adding it. Now burned tips are all over the plant. Should the dark color get brighter when I fix it? They don't grow any more new leafs. So I wouldn't know if I fixed it if they don't. A part of me still hopes it's just genetics but that doesn't explain the clawing and slim leafs which also points to N tox

Cut back on the vegetation nutrients and start upping the bloom nutrients. My Penelope did the same she didn’t bulk much the first four weeks but the following four weeks she got fat. But each strain does their own thing so the best you can do is enjoy what she gives you.

You can still get good buds. You haven't started flowering yet so the flower can be good.
