Newbe mistakes

My name is Mike. I have a few questions.. Yes I'm a newbie.. I only have one little lady. She is a 15 inch monster. Grown outside in a 5 gal.bucket. I have just flushed her because of too much nitrogen. Yes she was too green and has the claw. I flushed her 3 times and drained her real good. Should she be ok?
2. Can too much nitrogen cause a growth spirt at the tops of a 5th week flowering plant?
3. How long before the claw stops.?
Thanks, Mike

The claw will not go away, and no, nitrogen will not cause a growth spurt in week 5 of flower, by then the plant ideally should not be growing anymore but should be focused on flower production. Your buds as seen in the pics, will suffer as a result, too much nitrogen will delay and hurt flowering.

They can stretch a bit about this time, obviously you've got some heat stress issues hence the foxtailing, it's not grown so much as stretched

Thanks for your input. I've never had her under lights. Isn't foxtailing up and claw down??" Nitrogen toxicity."

What's the grow setup?
Outside? You in the southern hemisphere?
Any lights real closeby with the earlier sunsets?
You bring them in with lights on?
Something in the light cycle.

Outside in a five gallon bucket with very good soil and drainage.souther hemisphere. I take her outside at 7 and bring her in at 7... No, I make sure the lights are off before i bring her in..its usually still light when I bring her in..

It's definitely a temp issue, could be nitrogen, can't tell how green they are in the pic, normally a nitrogen issue it'd be really dark green,looks like the bud isn't forming too great either , probably bad genetics, is it an auto by any chance??

Don't think so . i got a few seeds from a friend who probably got them out of something he was smoking. And please remember she is only 15 inches tall.

It looks like a combo foxtail/reveg kind of thing happening.
I think light would be more likely to cause that than temperature.
He's going into winter down there .. temps are cooling (assuming) ... I've never heard of cold triggering revegging/foxtailing.
Light is the #1 culprit.

Maybe, I only ever see foxtailing in really high temps, but yeah could be anything causing it tbh, inside to outside isn't a great thing to do imo.
