To much nitrogen early on?
Jonesylr99started grow question 2y ago
How does she look? Purple lemonade auto from RQS. It’s my first ever grow. I think it got too much nitrogen early on. The early leafs are super dark and clawed a bit, but I’m not sure

They would be extra dark and that would progress bottom-up on the plant. I don't see that here, so if nitrogen is high, it's not showing too many symptoms at this point. I don't see "super dark" leaves. If you feel that's progressing slowly, dial back N 5-10% without changing other stuff too much. If they start paling at bottom (fairly quickly), you know it wasn't too much N. OBserve and react, all you can do...
Could be causing transpiration issues. Fold the lip down on the pot so humidity isn't so easily trapped. Shouldn't have the above-ground plant 5-6" deep in a pot.
Folding the lip down also makes the fabric pot sturdier.. more of a benefit for filling it up.

Plant looks fine.
Next time, fill your pots right up, plants grow at the soil surface level, not in holes!
Being that deep down, air circulation is restricted, reflected light is limited and you are stunting your plants by not giving maximum room for root development.
I too would advise against growing autos, you are far better off growing photoperiod fems as a beginner.........autos are the current craze, but they are inferior to photo fems in nearly every way.

Put those autos down. Autos are not a good plant to learn with. You nhave much more control over a photoperiod plant.This is going into flower when its 5wks old if you like it or not.You nmay have an issue,it may not be big enough but its still flowering.They're also more sensitive.They only became popular because they were 10wks originaly but nyou can do a photoperiod in the same time.

They look good, to me it doesn't look like an overdose of nitrogen. But still be careful when watering. Get yourself a pH meter and measure the runoff to check how much pH and EC value comes out. And the clawing with an overdose of nutrients is much more extreme. Don't worry.
