Low, from what I'm reading it all points to over watering...looks to be only clawing on the very top leaves, so I'll let it dry up a little extra this time. I watered yesterday so maybe I'll wait till Sunday or Monday at the latest. Hopefully it will go away in the next day 2...I'll post on Saturday with an update...thanks for checking in bro!!
 
Yea I'm really curious on these autos so watching ure grow n others cause not sure if I'm going to order those next..9e some kind of auto strain or keep doing photo periods...I have a 5 1/2ft "hash plant" from sensi seeds about 4 wks in flwer if u care to stop by and give us some reference

Thanks boys for checking in and appreciate the subs!!

Although I'm semi new to growing...I don't think I'll do any more autos...my reading is bringing me to the conclusion that being genetically altered may cause too many variances. I have three others and each has grown different with different problems. I have three different photo period plants and they have grown all the same with no problems. I have a few other autos, different strains that I will try from my last seed order, so maybe its this batch or strain. So I will wait to make my final decision based on there differences.

I'll post more pics over the weekend. She is getting huge!!

Thanks again for looking!!

One of three TS in the corner, under 800W + T5s. Anxious to see how they look together. Shaky pic. Sorry for the quality. Awesome job! Stay Crunchy! Crunch*

Aiight boys (and girls if any are watching)!! We are on Day 27. Stretching has been furious over the past three days and her pistols are increasing ten-fold!! I believe she is going to be a monster. In regards to the clawing, I don't think it was an over-watering issue. I believe it was PH related. I was using RO water that was PH'ing around 6+. My last watering I used regular tap water that was PHd at about 7 and alot of the clawing has gone away. I also had another girl in my grow that was completly wilted to where I thought for sure she was going to die. She was like that for weeks. I gave her some of the tap water and she has perked right back up within hours. But we shall see. My theory is that maybe the RO was too pure (extremely low PPM). And I know that my tap water is "hard" and contains a lot of good micro nute's like Cal and Mag that they were getting deprived of . Who knows...and that is completely a guess...but its working better overall so I will keep that going for now.

I still haven't given her any nutes yet. She was transplanted from a 1gal to a 3+ gal with fresh FFOF soil so I didn't want to over-do it. But she is Flowering like crazy so I'm planning on heading to get some FF Tiger Bloom in the next couple of days and will try a 1/4 dose for her next watering, then go every other and see how she responds.

Ok, enough Yap Yap....her are some pics!!

DAY 32 UPDATE

I got an awesome, maybe incredible pic of this plant today (With my phone even, god bless thoose Japanesse!! LOL). You can clearly see the crystals on the leaves, so beautiful!! Here it is:

Ok, nothing really new to report. I did some trimming to the bottom leaves, mostly fan leaves, to allow some more air to get through. And I know I said this last weekend, but I am for real going to the store to get some Tiger Bloom tomorrow and will feed during my next watering. I promise this time, LOL.

Lastly, I am still getting some "Claw"ing. Mostly at the top. All else looks extremely green and healthy other then that, so I am not going to worry to much about it. I adjusted the PH from the low 6's to about 7 and that did nothing, so who knows. I guess as long as there is no discoloration then I need not to be concerned. (unless someone can tell me otherwise on here with a solution)

Well, thanks all for looking, and here are a few more pics:

Thanks low!!! I'm thinking because she stayed so short and stalky that she was able to grow those side shoots so consistently with the top site. She should fill in nicely!!

Day 35 Update

Not much doin here at work, so thought I would post up. Did a lot more trimming and I still have not gone to get the Tiger Bloom yet..hopefully this week. My only real concern with this plant is the clawing. I am using FFOF, good drainage with plenty of drain holes, temps are fine as I have other plants in my grow that are not doing this, water is PH'd at about 7.....If anyone can give me some suggestions, I would greatly appreciate it!! Here are some updated pics:

I also have another Trans that is about two weeks from chop so thought I would post her up so y'all can see what she looks like almost finished. Extremely frosty to say the least.....

Thanks all for looking. Any help on that clawing would be much appreciated as I'm heading (hopefully this time) to my local hydro store to get some Tiger Bloom so if there is anything else I may need......

Thanks again!!

Day 44

I have a few other ladies in my grow and wanted to get an opinion on some possible issues I am having. They are photo-periods (non-auto's), about 2 weeks into 12/12, FFOF, 3gal pots, given 1/4 strength Tiger bloom and two regular waterings, PH'd at about 6.8. I am getting some curling but no discoloration or burn at the tips or edges. Also the top shoots don't appear to be opening like I am used to seeing. Thinking maybe Cal/Mag def. I would love some suggestions as I am plan on going back to the hydro store this weekend (for real this time) if I need to get anything to correct theses issues. Pics below and again, thank you in advance for the help!!

If you need any other info on the grow, let me know, and I will respond ASAP!! Want to get out to the store this weekend before anything gets worse. thanks again!!

My TS problem was due to lockout from alkali soil. It is a P deficiency. If you are using purified water ( distilled/R.O.) You MUST use a CalMag supplement. If you are not, then yes you will continue to have problems that will get worse. Best of Luck. Keep us posted. Crunch*
