You did it as a test yet have to use someone eles pics. LMAO
Do you know how many pot sites have gone down in the past 10 years? Shouldn't be a surprise to anybody who has grown more than a few years that most of us don't have all our pics from the past. Sometimes you got to believe what people say but I understand it's hard for some people in this generation of who can wiki the quickest.

Plants look good a couple look slightly over watered but still looking good. And as for removing fan leaves try it on one of your plants the next run so you can see for yourself. I personally don't think it's a good thing and yes I've tried it and didn't see it helping the bud
i had 6 at the beginning but now i only have two. so your saying they both look over watered? i water them about every 3 to 4 days. so if i water mon then the next water wud be on thur. is that too much?

how much water are you giving them when you feed? Do you pick up the pots to see if light because if they feel heavy you shouldn't water. I wait until the pots are easy to pick up before watering. My moms are in soil but will be switching to 5 gal DWC buckets.

So real I wasn't really impressed with your yield before but now that you told us it was the original OG kush cut I'm far less impressed. That's supposed to be a huge yeilder right?

I always have to laugh at people who attempt to redefine scientifically proven horticultural facts as being nothing more than; "shit they've heard."

Rather than rely on the opinions of a bunch of Beavis & Buttheads why don't you go ask someone with a PhD in horticulture and find out what they tell you so you can begin to become educated in plant facts rather than being an expert in voodoo growing methods, myths, urban legends, misconceptions, half-truths, flat out lies and old hippie folklore.
didnt realize you popped your head up for this thread, big surprise. Maybe because most PHDs arent growing pot ..... I have already personally shot you down on your yields with your methods verse my yields and my methods. Growing certain styles require leaves to be removed in order to benefit from them. When you start getting upwards of 3 lbs on one stationary light with no CO2 feel free to chime in again and tell all of use how lame our techniques are .... lol

I just picked up some cuts of original OG and the guy said the same thing. He was getting 2lbs per light with like 12 plants. Can only imagine how much more I could get by doing more plants and hacking them =)

Your best bet is to really flush te plants are slowly ramp up the nutes again. Next few waterings give them atleast a gallon of water per gallon container.3 Gal container give them 3 gal of water. I would also use ClearX or similar. I have had the same leaf curl issue myself and it was always over fertilizing for me even though the leaves werent burning. also let them dry out really well betwen waterings.

i just read this entire thread and im disapointed in many here, john12 you have nitrogen curl, from your pics you should slow down with the n as its time for them to start producing buds not growing upward, hope this helps
