Unhappy O.K. Just can't figure this out...can you help?

Man. I am at about 42 days flowering and I am getting this weird problem at the top of my plant (at the main cola top). The strain is K2 from Nirvana.

Things I have thought and tried.

At first I thought it was a sulfer def, so I flushed with 1/4 tsp. of Epson salts (about 10 days ago) - no effect

I also moved the light (400 Watt HPS) up from about 9" to about 13". Not hot at all at the top of the plant.

Yesterday I gave the following nutes. Ka-Bloom Part A and B, Diamond Necter, and a couple drops of Superthrive. Followed label recommendations for dosages.

Still getting this weird curling of the leaves and yellowing at the leave edges as well as on some of the leaves themselves.

Any ideas, guys?

Hummmm...I uploaded some pics but I can't get them to show?????

Thanks,
Boogie on all!

Hey...thanks for the reply! I thought overferting usually shows up at the bottom of the plant? Could I have locked out Mg and Sulfur?

If I flush, how long should I wait before giving the plants some more food?

Thanks for the help!

Hmmm....

.....i use the leaf curl at the top of the plant to regulate my nutes, no meters here, all in the eye

its cool ...I know when the nutes are just right.......one finger curls in a fan

anyway prolly get tore apart for those lines

after flush, your soil will be good and wet, the plants have plenty nutes in um already, so id skip a nute waterin and just continue your waterin schedule

edit; over fert can lock out micro nutes, your in soil so lets freshen er up first and be patient before tryin to fix two problems at once. little mag ef. for a bit wont hurt.

This is sooo funny! This is only my second grow, so I am still learning. On my first grow I underferted my plants cuz I was scared I'd overfert and this time it appears I gone the other way and overferted.

So...I will go right now and flush that baby out!

Thanks guys....

Here is a nice bud shot, just so you know, the grow is coming along nicely!

try as I might........

.............i cant see anything wrong with that Bud

one other thing, durin a grow they are many leaf experiences happenin, try not to get to overly concerned with every little spot. once you get a few grows, you will feel your plants. you will know what they need.

its a great vibe to walk into your grow and know what your plants are sayin........

from the pic I think your doin fine. look forward to hearin how they turn out and the smoke out

Very nice

hey boogiegirl

Apart from that little bit of leaf curl, those look like beautiful buds. Have you ever tried the K2 strain before?

If so, how did ya like it?

hey boogie

Yah you overfertilized or it might be that your pots arent draining properly andyou can tell be lokkin at the bottom of the pot if you see a white buidup thats a drainage problem u get an over excess of nutes in that portion of the soil they end up keeping the plant fron upatakin anything at all.


Just flush with strait water till you see improvement then on the last 2 weeks of flower stop nuts all together and just add water+teaspoon or 2 of sugar your buds will tase much better and the lack of nutes will promote thc growth instead of wasting it on growing flowers
