The plant is 40 days old growing in MG moisture control soil.

I fed it MG water soluble blue shit one time 3 weeks ago at half power.

150w hps

I let the soil turn death valley dry before I water but I did over water it one time....when the hook leaves showed their nasty faces.

I am also aware it could have some N toxicity.

Is there a remedy to unhook the leaves? Seems like not but who knows.

Bud formations are in early stages so I know the MG food is probably no good now as it contains more N than anything else.

Next time you repot add about 30% perlite and you wont get droop after watering.

The leaves are naturally clawing from being in flower. It's not necessarily N toxicity but the plant is high in it. Not a bad thing. Just let it do it's thing.

Not a problem. Also, with buds advice it won't effect your plant negatively at all. Of course you will have your general transplant shock but the peralite just adds drainage.

Your fan leaves ARE swollen so you could probably pay a lil' closer attention to your watering. If you are growing with organic soil, you don't ever want to let the soil get too dry. It's all about 'happy medium's' lol pun intended.

What are the swollen from? Too much or too little watering?

its not organic soil its just MG with MG perlite. I water so little because I dont want to rupture the nute balls and burn the plant.

What strain is it? From what I can see in the picture; you prob should have done a repot before you flowered. The pot looks to be a gallon or so big and with every foot your plant grows it needs about a gallon space. 2 gallon=2,3 ft. Always use dark containers, light penetration to roots can be harmful. Also, when watering try to spread it out through out the day. If my plants need 3 gallons of water total. I give em a gallon in the morning, afternoon and night. This gives me the ability to give my plant as much water as possible w/o drowning it. Yes, swollen fan blades are caused from over watering. Hope this helps?
 

keep it real.

Just my thought but I would say early start of salt build up mg is famous for that and I would also say the roots are running out of room I would repot very soon before its to late into flower. Just my thoughts tho very healthy looking girl tho
 

keep it real.

One more thing did you bring her out of the grow room or are you growing right there? Caus she needs complete darkness for her night cycle any light will cause many problems

Youre right, its only a one gallon bucket. It is pretty light proof but ill duct tape it up. Ill also try watering it like you do. Thank you.

I dont know the strain. It was from some bud I enjoyed.

I brought the plant out into natural light for the pics. It lives in a cabinet inside my closet. I make sure there is no light leaks at all. Thank you.

Is it too late to repot it?

that has to be one of the worst pieces of advice ive seen on here. clawing is NOT a natural part of flowering, it is a sign of a problem. a happy, healthy plant will never have leaf problems and they will stand out proudly, as known by any experienced grower. clawing IS a traditional sign of too much nutes and may have come from the added nutes. once a leaf shows signs of an issue, and anything other than a happy straight leaf is a sign, it will never go back to normal, just watch the new growth. i would say give it a good flush and double check ph.

SS you're retarded. There are many different types of leaf curling and if you would actually read his post and look at the pics you will understand that the 'clawing' is being caused by too much in at the early stages of flowering. If you don't balance it soon enough, it can cause your buds to be smaller. It would look diff if it was PH. There are no signs of nute lock out. Just signs of plant 'damage' due to excessive N and bloated plant leaves. Another typical case of loving your plant too much. One more thing, while you cannot unhook the leaves if you balance everything out the new growth will be healthier.
