so here is a link to my grow:
https://www.rollitup.org/cfl-fluorescent-lighting/487429-200-watts-cfl-emerald-triangle.html

u can find details about the grow there.. (im too lazy to copy and paste lol)

my grapefruit krush showing some nute burn/light burn/ maybe pH?? i am just using tap water

have found that leaves have grown into lights and burned but not too serious

my question though, should i be concerned with this damage if i still have 20+ days of flowering? is this enough stress to cause hermies?

any input is great thanks.

any amount of stress can cause a hermi...hell even a non stressed plant could hermi on you depending on how stable its genetics are...looking at your grow you have more like 4-5 weeks left...looks like nute burn to me...i'd just stop giving it nutrients and just water it for a few weeks as you probably have plenty built up into the soil already...see if it recovers.

You think the plant is lacking in nutrients that the molasses will provide? Or do you think they actually need it at this point?

well ive read that molasses increases mass of buds, ive also read that molasses, even in large doses, doesnt harm/burn plants. are either of these statements false?

Supposedly molasses is used as food for the bacteria within the soil which has a symbiotic relationship with the roots. The more active the bacterium, the more active the roots! As far as I'm aware, the plant does not have a use for the sugars (molasses), and could attract other pests if you're not careful. My advice would be to just use plain water for the next few feeds, as somebody already said the medium will still contain nutrients. I've only been growing for 3 or so years so I'm sure more experienced growers can offer you more detailed info.

yesterday i gave both of my plants some bushdoctor sledgehammer flush.
the grapefruit krush i will only give water from here on out, maybe some molasses... but i wanna do my best to prevent fertilizer taste, and a couple leaves are already pretty crispy.

the diesel i will still give some more feedings, shes still young
