few pics of the whole plant cloudy, always helps get and overall picture of whats happening, and have you changed routine at all?
That`s what I need too brother. Cranked my neck trying to check those girls out (chiropractor please!!), haha

Can never go wrong with a good, positive attitude!
Amen brother. Great catch too, would`ve been the first things I`d have recommended!

Cloudi is that just a weak stem point, or a crop that never recovered ... ? My initial thought was the weight was knocking them over but realized your early flower, not late. Like AE said, some pics would be awesome whole plant ... but I want one of that particular point in your stem structure where the bend happened. ATB mate,

Sucks about the Top Dawg mate. Hard to tell from the pic but looks like there might be some leaf twisting. Maybe ph or higher than normal temps recently. Hope it works out.

i know you wanted a shot of the bent stem but that is no longer possible, since i just chopped it off.. on the other hand the leaves are no longer droopy! and that curling up leaf, could it be heat related? although it's just not hot enough to be... also the first pic is of the fantastically healthy top dawg thrown in for comparison. both the same age and both treated the same..

Those leaves curling upwards is heat Cloudi, you nailed it. You`re doing a great job overall man, sometimes you just have to make those executive decisions. ATB, keep it coming for us!

yeah it seems to be heat and humidity problems, can you leave the door open a crack with a window open ??? just something small to move that air about might help, great going otherwise, you`ll enjoy that smoke once done and you are over the hump of the bridge now..

Still going cloudy hats off man, you've learned a lot since you started and there will be some harvest soon, and the slings and arrows of misfortune that you have hurdled in this grow will stand you in good stead in the future. Mostly looking good well done

it was definitely heat. the new fixture i made was the cause! sorted it now though! lol! gotta rethink the design! definitely get a better fan. i'd say the summer heat wave we've uncharacteristically had over here that helped the damage.. i just wish i had an intake/outtake airflow.. but it's not possible .. feck it! :) i left the door open a little now instead of blocking it in case i wasn't there for the 12/12 switch.

Haha, I`ve been waiting 3 months on my Cataracts Cloudi ... the patience will come just as your experiences have ;). You`re ahead of the curve mate

KC :weed:
Lol. you forgot to mention the tropical sativa growers who wait 4+ months for flower lol. and outdoors growers who wait way longer for their season. us indoors guys have it lucky.

i did a indoor grow that replicated the outdoor season once. in huge pots. i dont even know their soil capacity, but i had skunks like 5 feet tall. i was drooling over flowering em. even tho it takes longer, it can really be worth it when you pull over a pound per plant.

bad news... i've decided to bin her. she just aint gonna recover and has gotten a lot worse even though the temperature has been perfect. gonna just give my better top dawg more light.IMG_20130602_124534.jpgIMG_20130602_124542.jpg

Always sad to see the fall of a once proud plant. still, shit happens. I'm only left with 3 out of 5 myself. I agree it looks like a lost cause. But from the ashes of a forest fire, seedlings of a new generation sprout from the still warm ashes. This is not the end, merely the beginning of a new chapter.

and on that note! i just repotted my beautiful clone! she's still a bit weak but she's getting stronger! 8D she was taken from the very healthy heavily flowering top dawg that bilbo once said was a perfect mother plant! so life will always go on!

........god i love growing.... so rewarding.. AND challenging!
