this is my lady at almost 5 weeks flowering... this is my first indoor grow so i fucked up right from the start by planting her in MG soil...
I vegged her for 2 months and put her into flower on sept. 19...
when I grew outdoors my plants doubled in size in flower...she has only grew 5 inches in almost 5 weeks....
the MG soil said it feeds up to 3 months which now its been 3 months and 6 days so im thinking maybe she needs food.... but every damn time i water her, her leaves curl and damn near fold in half and the tips of her leaves burn... fucking MG soil!! never again...lol...
I also couldnt fing a good bloom booster with low nitro values so I got stuck buying MG bloom booster which is 15-30-15....not very good for flowering i know but its all i could get...I gave her this last night for the first time...it said mix a tablespoon for every gallon of water, so I gave her about a half teaspoon in fear of over nuteing her with MG...

my question is how does she look?? i know she looks rough but how about the buds?? do they look like where they should be for almost 5 weeks... im guessing i got another 6 weeks or so....thanks...

yeah some good bagseed... I saved seed from probably 15 bags of weed...and picked the best.... its a good body buzz so mostly indica....
thats all you could get around here was the couchlock indica type stuff untill recently...now I have a steady connection with cali bud (orange kush) mmmm...lol... so thats my next grow for sure minus the MG soil of course....lol...

I am also growing in MG soil. One of them is lookin nice and green while the other is having a lot of drooping. I've been givin them just water and they are troopin through the soil. I am happy with it so far. Def. never using it again though, but for now just keep her going strong and hopefully you'll yield what you expected. Maybe add some molasses to the diet to fatten up those buds.

That curling is a pretty clear indication it doesn't need more fertilizer. I'm using mg soil at the moment too, even though I knew better, and I have experienced the same symptoms.

It wouldn't compare well to good genetics but it looks fine for what it is. It should smoke well if you cure it right.

If this is your first grow don't go adding anything, not even molasses.

most def over fertilizing. she looks good, not trying to be negative. ive had similar problems before with soil as well. most soil mixes you buy have plenty of nutes in it. so when you go and add bloom boosters, your nuking the plant. all that droppage and yellow leaves is a good indication of that. i would say, lower the nute dosage quite a bit and add molasses, molasses have no nutritional value, no npk. so all that itll do is pack on some weight for you.
props brotha'
just learn from it and use any mistakes you make as a learning expirience

Heres the thing. #1 it looks like youve given her too many nutrients....#2 there isnt much branching....now I dont know if its because your using CFL or FIMing but at week 5 I had much more development on the plant......cut back on the nuts a bit n she should be A-OK

thanks man, ive definately learned a lesson here... ive only added the bloom booster once and only used 1/4 of the recomended dose which was stupid because I was pretty sure she was over ferted to begin with....
is it to late to add molasses at 5 weeks into flower?? hopefully not.... ill try to get some asap...thanks again p91.....
