Thx, but I don't think I am overfeeding them because they are constantly dropping the PPM. I know the claw you are referring to but if you look at other leaves they are actually pointing up. I was really confused when I saw this behavior but the plants seem to be doing alright. I will keep an eye on it, as I always do, and correct as needed.
I do run CO2 and I think when the plants really start cranking, around mid flower, they start to get very hungry and others have already stated that Blue Dream is a light feeder in the beginning and then becomes a heavy feeder towards the end and that's exactly what I am experiencing now.
What do you mean my humidity is off? I can rais the hood about 1 more inch but that's it. It isn't that hot in there and the reflector glass is cool to the touch.
Thx again for the info and happy holidays to you!
Growing a cross here you know.
I think this plant at first doesn't like a lot of water or nutes but it changes and will look good while it can actually stand more water.
I am in soil and I had a semi dry soil. I kept it on the dry side but at 6 weeks in I now know the soil is on the soaked side.
I had leaf curl and buds burn near the light because it wasn't getting enough fluids. I ignored this as simple light stress.
So I agree that it can look curled up and could use more water when the rest doesn't seem to be in stress.
However exactly how Blue Dream reacts I cannot say. This is Tiki-Blue here. A cross of Tiki-Jo and Blue-Dream.
I will make a regular seeds line this year. I hope to have feminized seeds sooner.

This is from a couple weeks ago I think but you can see the stress from the HPS and the semi dry soil.
