Unusual problem

I have a crop that has been in 12/12 for a month. They are doing extremely well. I am growing a strain that i have not done before. It is called God Bud. I have 16 of em going at 24"-26"'s. The problem is, one of them looks very weird. the leaves have started standing straight up. I noticed a curl in the top leaves 3 weeks ago. I keep tds at 1350 constant. Ph between 5.5 and 6.0. They are under a 600 watt Hps bulb. Temp is a constant 72. The past few weeks i noticed several others with a slight curl, but that is it. I have them on an advanced feeding schedule. I have been using low dose's of Flora blend and Cal-mag plus to even out any nuet discrepancy. Like i said everything else looks great. Strange.

Any feedback?

any pics????

Sorry man. I will work on that. But it is the damnedest thing. All the big leaves are standing up too. I have never seen anything like it.

Pictures say it all but if I had to guess, it has something to do with temps or air quality. Is your hygrometer or thermometer right by the tops of the crop or just "within" the grow room?

It is 5-6 feet from the tables at eye level. I will try and get some pix tomorrow. Thanx for responding. I have noticed two other plants of the same strain starting to do it. The other Indica strains i have in there look normal.

But i am seeing the same strain doing a much less exaggerated symptom in the clone room. They are anywhere from 8"-12"'s. Like i said the strain is new to me. One plant in flower is showing the wide leaves starting to curl from either side, making them look thinner. Makes me worry. On the flip side the cola's are HUGE compared to the other strains in there at the same stage. They are 4 weeks into flower.

This is a series of pix i took today. You can see the ones that are standing up. Also you can see the relative health of the others. In several pix notice how spindly the leaves are getting. Most of the pix are at the 4 week stage of flower. several are at the 2 1/2 week stage in the abutting table. 3 are of the veg room. 2 of the three are 2 1/2 weeks old. 1 pic shows the newest babies at 1 1/2 weeks. all of the new stuff is God Bud or Bubble gum. Notice how the G/B stands up a little in veg also.

that is weird, maybe back off nutes for a bit and see how she goes?

yea looks like there are other plants that are currled down also overdose? i would flush the whole table with some quality h2o and 300ppm solution first to clean out the old salts and nutes.. then start with half and work your way back up overall them there females is looking mighty yummy

Yes that is what i am doing. Still it has me baffled.

well this aint for certain but i think its to much light intensity they change the angle of there dangle so they absorbe less radition other plants do this as well

I believe the dark green leaves curling down at the tips like that is nitrogen burn.

If they are a month into 12/12 and flowering, I'd suggest cutting some Nitrogen out of your regiment and boosting the phosphorus and potassium, instead.
Maybe lower your TDS a bit, too.

Other than that, look's good, my dude.

Well i'll be jiggered! I never thought of that one. Angel of the dangle. I like it. Thanx for the input. I just changed the res a few days ago. It is a bit of a bitch. It's a 70 Gal. pain in the ass. LOL. But flushing would be a good idea. The only reason i am skeptical at all is because, all the rest are doing great. I am backing off on nuets. Tds is down to 1200. I am using Kool bloom on them. I have not dosed em with bud blaster, Flora-licious or the purple bottle stuff yet. I will wait another week and see what's up first. If it does advance i will do a complete flush like you suggested Clown Baby.

I will say this, i cut my first God Bud last night. She was 30"'s and i estimate over 3 oz's. Very impressive. The smell is unbelievable and sticky? My lord! The trichomes are as swollen and as dense as anything i have ever seen. I know this is going to be intense shit. I will keep you posted! And again, thanx for all of the feedback and compliments!
