The stem will be fine in a few days to a week, don't worry.

As for the bottom leaves, you can take the very burnt ones off. They serve no purpose now and will fall off soon anyway. I'd say it's a classic nute-burn, which you already know. If you're still getting burnt leaf tips, especially on the newer foliage, it's still too much. Small plants + low light input = lower nutrient requirements.

Also what's your pH?
If you haven't yet, check out this thread about most of the problems you could encounter.

If your problems get worse you can make a separate thread in the infirmary and you should get things under control with their help. Imo it's not looking too shabby and as the plants will get bigger (assuming your pH is ok) they will grow out of it.

PC-s are fun, good luck!

my pH is around 5.5-6.5. I'm just using a GH liquid test kit so I can't give you exact measurements, but everything that goes into these pots has been in that range, so my runoff is the same. I've been assuming that these are burn symptoms, but it's been hard to differentiate between that and K or P deficiencies, since I have little experience with either. I'm not gonna freak out over it though, the last run did pretty much the same thing and they just grew right through it

The plants don't look that bad at all...waiting for an update are they showing any preflowers yet?

Both started showing sex yesterday. Unfortunately, the big one was male so I trashed it, but the smaller one is definitely female. I think I'm gonna name her Delilah. As you can see, I didn't top her because she was so stunted to begin with, so I'm hoping some of the lower budsites will fatten up now that she's tied down. I don't expect a lot out of her, but anything at all will be good enough at this point.


also, a sneak at what else is growing in my closet

'Chase & Status - Time ft. Delilah' you didnot think of that song by any chance? Excellent name anyways, seems to be enjoying her time in ther. Sorry to hear about your male though!

I had the Grateful Dead's "Samson and Delilah" in mind, because I'm tearing my hair out trying to get my way with her

Hey if I may offer some advice on your burn issue

It is not really that you are feeding too much, its thats your feeding the wrong thing. Even though you are on 12/12 your plant is still in its veg stage until flowers start to appear. Next time hold back giving just veg nutes and a root stimulator, as well as not yellowing your plants will grow much faster.

Keep up the good work, I started about a year ago micro too, I made lots of mistakes and learnt along the way, micro is a very unforgiving environment.

I hope female turns out great...Also like your shrooms (do you know what kind?)

yeah I think next time I'm gonna start with just the nitrogen-heavy Grow Big in small doses, instead of trying to measure a weaker version of the Fox Farms recommended schedule

golden teachers, I'm excited for 'em. It's the third time I've done it with the BRF tek, but it'll be only my second time going all the way to fruiting, since last time I did it my furnace was down for a week in the middle of winter and all my cakes died

here she is at day 7 of flower
