HI Everyone , I am back with the same problem as last week. I took more pics, hopefully they are much better.
I am in day 34 of 56 in flower. The buds should be well developed at this point. Mine did not, the plants grew fast and actually became quite leafy and green thru Veg and 2 weeks of flower. They looked green, big and healthy. The pistils seemed to show a little slower than my previous crops. About week 3, it became clear that the buds were not forming properly.
The bud looked like it has no of very few pistils. They just did not develop as they should. The bud looks like a group of calyx's with minimal hair. What hairs they did have turned red very early, yet the plants remained very green and healthy. It looks like the hairs are being choked out by the calyx (I think). Once in a while I can find a few white hairs popping out here and there. This problem always start with the terminal bud or cola. Then moves down to all the other buds.
I have noticed leaf curl as well. The leaves on the lower half are starting to curl inwards, edges of the leaf curling down almost like you could fold the leaf in half down the center vein. (see pic). The leaves also tend to thicken around the bud as this problem progresses. Basically all of plants are not flowering at a normal rate, they are stunted for some reason and I cannot figure it out
INFO
Purple Kush
GH Nutes, Sweet by Botanicare, Cal Mag Plus (1/2 strength)
PPM- 500 to 900 by day 20 of flower
Reverse Osmosis water, I alternate food and water every other day
PH- 6.0-6.4
Medium--- Pro Mix HP, I do add Dolomite Lime at 4 cups per bag
