So I have my plants in Miracle Grow. Transplanted them 3 times. Never added any Nutrients even through I have the fox farms. I read it will burn out in beginning stages due to the MG soil. Soni never added them. So pretty much I read that plants In MG soil can stay stuck in flowering/Budding stage. Is this true with my plants being so beautiful. The only thing I messed up on is proper training/trimming of fan leaves. I kept Bottom pistils and they now look like mini buds with brown hair and white pistils. The tricomes are not yet cloudy but the hairs are turning brown. This was my first grow of just knowledge of helping a friend with his plants and reading a bunch of these forums. I have three different strains not sure what they are I know that can help a bunch with timing but, as stated I planted 3 at a time and got lucky with all females.

No, not true. Looks like you have about 3-4 more weeks to go. You could probably give them a small amount of the FF now, maybe 1/4 strength for starters....Plants use a lot of nutrition at this stage.

What kind of light are you using??

I'm using LED 600w in a 4x2 tent. I read 400w would have been better for that size. I have it on 12/12 hrs. And humidity is about 50% I can't add much in the small tent to cool it down. There's already a CO2 filter and exhaust fan that dropped the humidity ALOT from prior months. No mold no spider mites I check everyday. And feed it every other day or when soil is dry. I actually started putting Big Bloom (tiger big bloom) for the end stages. I read up on it late lol. I know I give more info but I'm Workin so I'm tryin to cover everything in one thread vs carrying on. Bit I will reply back I love the feed back.

Here's some recent pics of the other strains. Wondering if its too close to light is why the leafs are burning and getting crunchy20200706_163254.jpg20200706_163303.jpg

I'd guess that's some kind of deficiency but all in all they look pretty good. Have you been giving any cal/mag? About half way through flower some strains also use a lot of potassium. My guess is one of those, but looks like they are getting plenty of nitrogen and doing pretty good,

what kind of water, ro or tap, and have you ever checked the ph? Especially when using the Tiger bloom, etc.?

No I didn't use any chemicals only because its in Miracle Grow. I actually started giving it the bat guano and worm casings liquid. N it started burning the leafs so I stopped. They got to whether they are with only two watering gallons of water with 3tsp of big bloom

Looks like too much N, but not much you can do there if using MG soil. Also apeear to be starting to foxtale, which could be indication of heat stress. What is your temp at the canopy top? How close is your 600w LED? Brand of light? Also, how large are your pots? 2gal of water per plant each watering?

5 gallon container. All are in the one and yes the light is too close but I can't raise the light anymore in tent. Or can't chop the tree down lol. I know I need a less wattage light. Next time

It's not your light at all. It probably doesn't draw close to 600w from the wall.

Your leaves are Extremely Dark Green.
To much N from the Miracle Gro.
That's why your buds are small/under developed also.

Can't do much except not use Miracle Gro next time.

Do you think if they ran some FloraKleen’d water through that MG soil it could leech out some N? Might be worth a shot.
