no im pretty sure their not theirs alot and their quite big, and when i last watered the water flowed right through.
could it be stunted from stress of a flush, and should i try feeding it or just wait till the soil is dry first then feed

the plant is tied down its about 10 inches high from the top of pot but if wasnt tied down it would be like 2 or 2 and ahalf feet tall, and i can post pics, and all i got is a camera phone it takes ok pics but not the best, i am tryin to borrow a real camer so i can take better pics of the plant, do u need pics of the yellow leafs and the whole plant and stuff, also their is some pretty recent pics in my journal

Thanks for the answers everyone. I figure three years should give one a pretty good base of experience to work from. As you said dst, there are so many methods and trains of thought of how to go about things I think it would keep a person busy for some time trying them out. I'm a bit intimidated about this sativa grow so I've decided I am going to top the feminized seeds for clones and use the two top method and then super crop those tops and keep super cropping the whole plant. I've never taken a clone and I have only attempted to super crop once. I watched some videos last night on the subject and figure I won't learn if I don't do it. At worst the clones won't root. I'm changing my grow room around, specifically the orientation of the lights for better coverage. I'm upping my exhaust fan for my lights to a six inch fan and using my four inch fan and filter as a scrubber, this air won't be exhausted out of the room. My exhaust for the last grow sucked the air out of the room. I'm changing that so the air running through my lights will come from a different room outside my grow room and be exhausted into my attic. I don't want the exhaust sucking out the cool air during the summer, and our summer will be here by may.
My goal is four ounces a plant. My last girls should be dry enough in a day or so for a final weight from them and at least I can get an average for the ten of them. I'm guessing an ounce and a half average. I had two very leafy girls with almost no side buds worth saving so basically I got two tops from those two plants.
Like golf, I'll just keep at it.

Watering problem McPurple. Don't give it any more water, you gonna have to let this dry out. How is the soil, is it very compact? How is the weight of the pot? (do you test the wet and dry weight of your pot to know if they need juice or not?
Do the leaves look limp like they need water?

wait till soil is dry, then start your watering over......no im pretty sure their not theirs alot and their quite big, and when i last watered the water flowed right through.

those pics gave me a good idea of what your woking with,and from what I have gathered,you should let the plant dry out 2-3 days before giving it any more water,then add 1/4 grow nutes to supplement the n deficiency,as it may be a case of the root mass retaining the water because of its size.Had that problem with a previous grow,the root ball was massive.

i will get some pics as soon as i can and thats a cool way to grow a plant iv never seen that before.
the soil is not compact at all its foxfarms light warrior soilless mix, theand yes i do test the weight of the pot thats how i know when to water when its dry it feals light as a feather, and right now the pot is a bit heavy cuz its still wet, and no the leaves seem fine they drooped a bit the firts day i flushed wich was about 4 days ago

use the Grow Big,and maybe some Big Bloom as well as it has all of the micro nutrients your plant is maybe not getting from the sounds of it,and only 1/4 strength for the first 1-2 feedings,increasing strength with every other feeding to reduce any stress on the plant.

ya know,we installed 2 where I work,and took em down after the first grow,as the yield was no different,got rid of em,and put up 2 more 1000 watters to supplement,other than that,I dont bother
