Your plant looks extremely young. Other people also think you've nute toxified your plant. So, you probably did, in fact, overfeed them.
First grow problems any help please?

36"x20"x62" are the dimensions. Not sure if thats what you were asking lol

Lol yes I was asking about dimensions. Sorry might have skimmed thru your posts but are you going to experiment with different grow techniques.

Its okay, my initial post has the dimensions
and yeah for this first grow I'm going to top then (if this one is successful) im gonna try topping and lsting at the same time. I also wanna see what growing hydroponically is like. But for now Im gonna stick with soil aha. I kinda want to try outdoors sometime but I dont think I'm prepared for that any time close to soon.

Ok sorry mate I didn't read properly. You'll probably have to LST and top to reduce height.
I started out indoors now I only do outdoor grows sold all my equipment I only kept the mag glass

How are you 'flushing' this pot? Most people who flush use 2-3 times the size of the container, and i hope you're not doing that.
I'm not sure if anyone has suggested this yet, but maybe you should add a tablespoon of crushed dolomite lime per gallon as a top dressing which will help with any cal/mag issues and keep your soil at a good ph once flowering starts. I usually add a tablespoon or two per gallon to my FFOF when I am mixing it up (also about 10-20% perlite but you can't add that now). It takes a couple weeks to start breaking down and being useful.

What?! Are you saying you fed it even EARLIER? No wonder!

Dude. I am saying it. You have red stems (phosphorus deficiency) and darker leaves with mild burn on some of the tips (nitrogen burn and tox) You are nuting within the first two weeks or so. It's definitely overnuting, and if your pH is off, that's giving credence to my theory.

Dude, I'm only getting snippy because you're acting like I don't know what I'm saying. I can understand you not getting everything, but don't shit on me when I try to help you.

I get that bro but you have to understand im getting info from 3 or 4 different sources, its not shitting on you. If i dont question some of the answers I've gotten Im only going to be stuck. I have and never will follow directions without first questioning them and trying to learn as much as possible. Youre info sounds good and I'm going to take the advise to heart. But If a teacher told you 2+2=5 and another told you it =4 before you knew the answer you would question them both..

I suppose. I apologize. But if I wasn't sure, based on the information I gave you which is based off what you gave me, I'd say that I wasn't positive. I wouldn't want to contribute to fucking up your plant if I can help it.
